Purple Rosy is finished and I am so happy with the binding and backing as well as the top. It is 65" x 82" and has Hobbs 80/20 batting. It was quilted by Robin Diaz.
All of the fabrics are from the Kaffe Fassett Collective, the trio of designers.
The photo above was taken with my Canon camera and this photo was taken with my cellphone. I think this one is truer color, but something halfway between is probably the closest true color.
This backing fabric has a lavender background.
I cut batting for these two quilts, the next to be quilted. The top one in flannel and was started last year.
I used these 3 fabrics for the back of this quilt. They are all leftovers from previous backings.
I will work on the back of the flannel quilt today.
I wanted to try the barn raising layout with the double 4 patch blocks. I can't say I think this is pretty, other than pretty bright. It will be okay for a quilt to gift.
I am trying the 16 patches as a border. I will be short 3 blocks if I use them like this. Since the center is an even number of blocks both ways I could do the layout where 4 squares make a diamond design, like I did on the purple/green one.
