Nope, I didn't start cleaning up in there. I cut out another quilt.
This second year quilt is called Chaos & Harmony. It was a freebie online - I don't remember the site. Laurie organized a group of us to make these. It was my first true venture into brights - and, boy, were they bright! Even the black background had sparkles in it! So tacky, but so much fun! Judy quilted it with bright varigated thread. You can see I didn't plan the binding very well on it! LOL
Someone asked me if I knew where to find the Christmas Memories booklets. I searched last night for a while online and couldn't come up with anything. The address and phone number listed on the back of the pattern is Blackbird Designs, 11065 West 175th St., Olathe KS 66062, 913/681-3137.
My gratitude today is the beautiful mountains with a sprinkling of snow still on them - and a clear enough day to be able to see them!

Planet Patchwork, wasn't it ? I have seen a couple of these - I like your the best.
That was such a fun quilt to quilt! I love variegated thread on black.

The black and brights are great! I sent you an email about Christmas Memories.
Jeanne :)
Oh I love it! I haven't seen one that was finished yet. It's so bright and cheerful. :) Oh, btw... I like how you are adding a "gratitude" to every day's posting. That's such a neat thing to do.
Hugs,

Okay, if that's tacky then I must be tacky! I love it!!!! :)
I love the quilt.... the binding fits right in with the "Choas"
Vicky,
I think it was through Planet Patchwork and it was a royal PITA!!! (pain in the A$$) Directions were wrong in a lot of places...but we got it done! Mine is done but still needs quilting!
Thanks for sharing!
Hugs
Laurie

Hanne is right---Planet Patchwork. One of Diane Hundley's designs possibly the 2nd one they did. http://tinyurl.com/huvzs will take you there.
I've the BOM's done for the Galactic Twinkle to finish up with the log cabin/flower center one of these days!!
I couldn't find the picture that showed the backing fabric. It's as wild and crazy as the front!
Laurie, I remember now -- that was a royal PITA. Terrible directions. But, hey, it's done and it was fun working with all those brights! LOL
I just love that bright quilt!
I was thinking about your quilt last night as I was piecing a binding - I thought that you made this binding different colors on purpose - goes to show, one will never KNOW a quilter's "mistake" unless the quilter tells. Looks great to me.
Cheers!

I have the pattern for this quilt somewhere in my "to do" files. HAHA! Yours is beautiful! It encourages me to go ahead and put everything on hold and make it right now!
