My husband Paul has a quilt of course, but I wanted to make
him another one. He likes bright colours
on a black background so when my friend Kathy said she was going to
make this quilt I thought it would be fun to do it as well so I bought the Hugs and Kisses pattern.
It looks very different with the black background as the
diamonds appear more prominent.
I also plan to quilt this in January – I can see I am going
to have a busy January quilting my own quilts.
You can see Kathy’s version of the quilt here. I really like how she has quilted straight
lines through the crosses, and I will likely do something similar.
I really like this with the black diamonds! And Kathy's quilting is just right.
ReplyDeleteI think my version was a bit too 'girly' for Paul. :). Love the black background fabric with your scrappy bright fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI love the black with all the bright colours. I too have made a Hugs and Kisses with white diamonds. The black gives the pattern a whole new look. I think I might experiment with blue or green just to see what results.
