March Guild Quilt


I was easily drawn to this little quilt top at quilt guild the first of the month so brought it home to quilt and finish. The photo may not do it justice. The blues and purples are lovely and the light prints have purple flowers on them. I love blues and purples!

I machine quilted this with diagonal lines of stitching and then folded the backing over to the top (self-binding) and stitched it down. This quilt is approx. 36 x 45". I will take it back to quilt guild at our April meeting and then it will be donated to a local charity. So I don't take all of the credit, this quilt top was pieced by someone else in our guild. Right now I don't know who - but I'll have to ask her to stand and be acknowledged when I show the quilt. She's the one who put all the lovely colors together.

Hi, Joyce from another Joyce! I've never even considered putting purple and blue together. But, I like the effect in this little quilt. I'm making a baby quilt soon and will have to consider putting purple in it as I am pulling fabrics from my stash now.
Thanks for sharing such a darling quilt.
