I know, I know the saying..."it isn't a quilt until it's quilted"...
...and so, okay,...I haven't a finished quilt for the Blogger's Festival Spring edition...
...do you forgive me if I show you just a top?
This is my first project using only solid colors and I have loved to make it!
I have taken inspiration from a quilt I saw on a Quiltmania magazine but I have changed the roof and rearranged all the measures of the blocks and I have proposed it as a monthly project (BOM) into a quilts shop where I teach .
So this is just the sampler... and I'm so curious to see how all the quilts (now again in progress) will turn out.
This is the block I prefer..a little (five inches) , bright, full solid colors pineapple!
And , as every year, many THANKS to Amy for organizing this wonderful quilts and blogs tour!
ENJOY THE TOUR!
This is very beautiful and special quilt top! I love every house and you have made them so well just with solids! x Teje
RispondiEliminaLove all the mini quilts in the houses.
RispondiEliminaIt reminds me of Amish quilts. Love the mini blocks too.
RispondiEliminaHow very cool! It reminds me of those country barns that have quilts painted on their sides...
RispondiEliminaThis is a great house quilt. I've never seen one like this. Thanks for sharing!
RispondiEliminaI love house quilts and this one is wonderful!
RispondiEliminaI love this quilt top!!! It's wonderful in so many ways! Thank you for sharing it!
RispondiEliminaIt's a beautiful quilt top!
RispondiEliminaHow wonderful. I'm in love with that pineapple block too!
RispondiEliminaBeautiful top. Love the houses with the mini blocks in. great pattern.
RispondiEliminaGorgeous! I saw a pattern similar to that but was too cheap to buy it, they wanted $30 just for the pattern. Love your interpretation and all the yummy solids. Great job! It will be a real quilt someday, I'm sure :) Thanks for sharing its story.
RispondiEliminaThis is a really great quilt idea - like the barn quilts!

Your quilt top is so pretty, both calm and colorful at the same time ; )
RispondiEliminaI hope you will have lots of fun quilting it!
I think it's cool how you incorporated different blocks into the houses. A really interesting house quilt. Can't wait to see the finished product!
