Think it, say it, do it - using from fabric collection, searching the scrap boxes :-)
Drawing in EQ6, calculating block size - 10", calculating the days available to do the quilt.
We are invited to a friend's 40th birthday Saturday in less than 2 weeks - 11 days to do the quilt.
What to give to someone having the most ?
A lap quilt matching the living room :-)
My friend is very fond of Coffee Lattes, and with the colours matching the living room style the work title of the quilt is just that - Coffee Latte.
Picking fabrics from my new shelves are a joy, as I can see them so well, and while talking on the phone with DH I sorted browns and cream out of the brown, cream and white scrap box.
To work oh bold quilter!
What a neat design you have come up with - and a perfect gift.
ReplyDeleteI knew you'd absolutely LOVE your shelves!
What a great idea, Hanne !I bet this one is gonna make someone VERY happy !
ReplyDeleteBy the way, please remind me to invite you at my next birthday party ! (my living-room is gorn yellow and rusty red). LOL
Hugs & smiles,
NADINE
Oops ! I was meaning Corn yellow, of course !

I looks really cool. Your colour choice are exactly my favourite colours.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to see this one in fabrics
ReplyDeleteOh, this going to be so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love EQ! I have a very similar design that I worked up after doing my double 4 patch. It's much easier to do a 16 patch with a 4 patch than trying to layout the quilt the right way to get the diagonals running across correctly. I love the colors too - mine was scrappy greens and beiges.
ReplyDeleteGreat graphic design Hanne. Your friend will be thrilled. Love your new shelves--you lucky girl!
ReplyDeleteI am joining you Hanne:) Great design and perfect for my scraps and strips. I am working on it this rainy day.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the quilt when it's done. Hope it makes a good dent in your scrap boxes of browns and creams.
ReplyDeleteYou are a bold quilter and I know you will have it all done for the birthday....lucky friend. I really, really love your fabric shelves.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great design! I would love to do omething similar, but I am only a beginning quilter and it might be a bit too difficult. i wonder if there are any similar commercial patterns I could buy?
ReplyDeleteLykke til - det blir sikkert eit flotte teppe - som alt anna du lager :)
