Queen's Garden by Sobana Sundar

Queen's Garden by Sobana Sundar of India

What a stunning arrangement of colour! I love how vibrantly these fabrics shine against the dark background; the florals pop and are framed with gorgeous greens that demand your attention! WOW!

Sobana has also shared her 'On My Window Flowers Bloom' wall hanging with us, to see it - click here now.

WOW: Playing with Fabric

 WOW = WIPs On Wednesday 
These are my two fabric 'project' boxes for Hold Onto Your Heart. I'm finding my gentle version is coming together very naturally, it doesn't feel like work. But my full colour version is having me chase my own tail in loops! Yellow? Mustard? Gold? Goldish - Mustard? I simply can't commit. So today, I'm drawing the line and selecting and moving forward.

I know, I've said this before.

But this time I really mean it. I mean, really. My colour and fabric addict is getting out of hand. And taking up too much space.

And.. wish me luck.

What's Your WOW?

Queen's Garden by Hanlie

Queen's Garden by Hanlie from South Africa. 

The first thing I see from this colourscheme is a lush lily pond - look at these colours! They're so inviting and the use of the blues, teals and greens are just making me swoon - they're perfect for the vibrant pinks that steal the show in this stunning beauty!

Here's what Hanlie has to say about her stunning quilt:
I made the quilt during our stay in Qatar. There is a wonderful Quilt Guild and I also belonged to an expat quilt group...The Doha Divas. 2 of my blocks face the wrong way...but after many times unpicking I left it imperfect. I jumped the gun to finish the quilt end of August. 


Hanlie, I love your eye for colour and this quilt is a knockout!

Daisy Blue: Your Next Quilt Is Waiting!

I designed Daisy Blue for beginners: I wanted a quilt that anyone could make - the applique is large and easy and the blocks are basic - but together, they make make something extra special. 

I love this design. It feels modern and vibrant yet with the right fabrics, it can tone down into something else completely; this one's all about the fabrics. And when it comes to fabrics, I just know you have plenty in your stash that you want to pull out and show off. So here's your next project; make it fun, make it easy, make it beautiful. Just make it! 

This one's perfect for groups and sewing bees and I know a gathering who are de-stashing their beiges and blues to create a whole group of Daisy Blue beauties..

As for me, I'm just waiting to see how you'll make yours, you know I love seeing all the colourschemes that arise from each new pattern..

Queen's Garden by Miriam Pyett

Miriam Pyett of Saskatchewan, Canada 

Miriam, it's marvelous! 
Oh the joy of colour! Look at this Queen’s Garden made with Kaffe Fassett Collective fabrics! It's a big WOW from me, I am loving every single addition and the sashing really comes into it's own with the KFC fabrics alongside each other - it's completely fabulous and a wonderful example of how the fabrics your pick sets the mood for your quilt.

WOW: Pottering About

  WOW = WIPs On Wednesdays  
I need more fresh air: although I could spend all day indoors quilting, I find that there's nothing more refreshing than pottering about in the garden. This is my version of gardening', a few sweet little pots that I'm going to transfer into a hanging basket. I just want these sweet little faces poking through and I like the idea of enjoying my morning coffee with a pansy nearby.

Blame it on Hold Onto Your Heart, I am a little bit obsessed with pansies at the minute.. not that this is a problem. But as my DH pointed out this morning - a pansy door wreath, my new pansy mug (awaiting it's arrival via post), several pansy greeting cards on the fridge just for the pretty factor and now my hanging basket. But I don't think I've gone pansy enough, I'm sure I can fit some more into my life somehow.. perhaps pansies are my own version of wearing purple??! Time will tell..

Queen's Garden by Cate Winkler (2nd)

Queen's Garden by Cate Winkler 
of Wagga Australia 

It's Cate again! Not only has Cate already made a stunning Queen's Garden (click here now to see it,) but she's gone ahead and made a second quilt in these fabulous shades which she has aptly titled: 50 Shades of Grey! 

How great does it look? I have a thing for grey shaded quilts, whenever I colourscheme my new quilts and look at options, there's always a grey scale one in there - I think it's such an interesting scheme that can look beautifully cool and sophisticated and I love the challenge of conquering such a pallette. Although in greys, Cate's quilt has plenty of movement, she's certainly got a wonderful eye for using shading.
