Fall Quilt Festival time! Well, it's kind of a quilt...
I mean, I worked hard, planned the layout and really stretched myself with that dang red in there! But are rag quilts really QUILTS? Well, this one IS because I like it and am totally loving the colors! I can't tell you how I agonized over the red.
Back of quilt. Love that blue!
Enter Bubbles. This was the puppet commission I had been working on for three weeks. It was cool to try a new thing, experiment, learn some puppet stuff. God has opened so many unexpected doors for me!
Bubbles's daddy wanted to do the facial features - no, it's not a blind rabbit puppet.
I was having serious quilt withdrawls. So I pulled the Manzanita charms off the shelf and got a little crazy. Really my only goal was to get this thing done in as little time as possible just for the sake of:
1.) Sewing and
2.) Playing with fabric and colors again.
Hence the quickie rag quilt. Except I forgot they take forever to clip. Oh well. It's done and I can get back to Bubbles 2.1
I love it! It looks so comfy :)

ReplyDeleteSo lovely colors in that quilt, and it looks really cosy. Nice that you have lived in Sweden. I hope you enjoyed the time here. I live in Göteborg, on the westcoast. In Sweden quilting is a rather large hobby. Maybe not as big as in the US, but big in swedish proportions :) Have a great day!
