Are we having fun yet?
Why, yes...
...yes, we are!
I had planned to write an accompanying post, but frankly, after several days of marked improvement, my hand has taken the proverbial two steps back and is currently throbbing. So I'll forego typing for now and will return at the beginning of the week. Have a great weekend everyone!
Oooh! I love it! Such a fun arangement for a quilt. Can't wait to see the finished result!

Wow! I'm not sure why but the word that comes to mind is yummy! Maybe all the pink and red reminds me of candy?

Sure looks like you're having lots of fun! You've really taken to this months colour scheme then? Looks like it will be a great quilt. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

groovy...what do you call this?

I've been lurking here on and off for ages via Blackbird. One day - O.N.E. day - I will start (and finish) a quilt, and indeed become a quilter. At this point in time I have a couple of books, but no idea where to even start. I want to do something in blues and greens using vintage fabrics from the 50s and 60s, and maybe even the 70s. But that's it. I don't even know how much fabric to buy let alone how to match patterns with plains, plaids with florals, florals with . . .
So at the moment, I am content to sit, and watch and marvel as your pieces come to life.
(The idea of making a mock-up mini version had never occurred to me - but makes so.much.sense. SIGH. So much to learn. I also don't have a machine, so it's all going to be by hand...)

Oh my! I love where it's going!
Posted by: caro | March 05, 2006 at 11:18 AM
yes, you've done it, you've inspired me. Yesterday I sat down for a little bit and did some hand quilting from a project I started 9 years ago!!! (I have finished quilts in the intervening years....) I happily looked at my design wall holding the traditional quilt I am (or really am not) piecing right now and I'm going to do it, one step at a time...In the evening I worked on the first sleeve of my first ever sweater. If only the kids didn't need to be fed and the groceries purchased and the clothes laundered...
Posted by: Kathie | March 05, 2006 at 11:37 AM
WOW!!!!! That is a really fun pattern!

This is so inspiring! I'm starting a red baby quilt for my brother but I'm making it very, very simple, in stripes.
Posted by: Siow Chin | March 05, 2006 at 09:18 PM
Wowee!! I had been looking at this post all weekend, finally I printed out the picture and drew all over it to figure out how you did it! Very,very cool and clever. Thanks for the inspiration and the brain tickle. Take care of that hand!
Posted by: KT | March 06, 2006 at 10:07 AM
That looks fantastic and is a wonderful red/pink project. And you are working so well-organized, this wall is brilliant. Your blog, your pictures and your talent are the reasons for my desire to dive into the world of sewing a little more deeper.
Posted by: Krawuggl | March 07, 2006 at 07:13 AM
those colors are AWESOME!! the wall is totally brilliant. You are inspiring!
Posted by: Carrie | March 07, 2006 at 09:15 AM
I love the colors and design! Do you have carpal tunnel? I do too, and can't type long, or hand quilt, or do English paper piecing. Good luck.
