My Blogger's (not again a)Quilt Festival


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!

  11. Gorgeous! 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.
