Snowball quilt

Image
  I loved making the plus positive quilts ( #1 and #2 ). From the same webpage came this tutorial for the “ snowball fight quilt ”. The original had Christmas themed fabrics. I found some floral fat quarters in my stash, that I had for a while and did not like that much anymore. And now... I LOVE them, they were working perfectly for this pattern, the white patches and binding bring the quilt together. The Pattern was adjusted from 9” squares with 3” contrast fabric to 7.5” squares with 2.5” contrast fabric. The backing was donated fabric from Project Linus. Final size 88x121 cm (35”x48”). The quilt was donated to Project Linus in May 2021.

Rainbow wrap up

  This is a wrap! Four rainbow quilts, now I give the pattern a break. I can’t decide on a favourite, as they all have their pluses and minuses. Let’s talk only positives here: #1  bottom right - COVID quilt, I had to made do with what I had. Simple but beautiful colour palette #2  top right - love the turquoise cloud on the white background. Full rainbow #3  top left - the dark navy background makes the colours of the rainbow (and white of the cloud) pop #4  bottom left - the grey and pink combination is nice. And the rainbow binding is the best

Rainbow quilt take #4

  The fourth take on this pattern  (see a gallery of all four quilts  here ). I had the rainbow coloured fat quarters left over from the previous rainbow quilt and some silver solid fabric. I used dark pink and light pink for the clouds, which really worked well with the grey background. Pink clouds on a rainy day, wouldn’t that be nice? My favorite thing with this quilt is the rainbow binding. That’s what happens when you don’t have enough fabric in one colour. The quilt was dontated to Project Linus in May 2021.

Rainbow quilt take #3

  This is the third take on this pattern  (see a gallery of all four quilts  here ) I ordered the dark navy online. It was a bit too dark for my taste, but then it made the colours pop so nicely! The quilt was donated to Project Linus in May 2021.
