Then there's the Red and White quilt!!

Well, its not exactly red and white, but its close, and it was definitely inspired by the
Infinite Variety Exhibit in NYC earlier this year.


This is just the first in a series of red and white quilts l am working on,
that are directly inspired by the exhibit.  When l came home,
l just wanted to sew red and white, but with no white fabric in my stash,
 l just used what l had. l still love it!! Can't beat a 9 patch in a 9 patch.

Thanks for visiting.
Linda.

  3. Absolutely beautiful Linda! Please, please tell me which fabrics you used, I actually like these colours better than red and white! I would love to try and make a nine patch quilt using your fabrics choices. I love this!

  9. Red and white together, or red and cream is indeed a timeless combination. Getting more and more excited about visiting Quilts in the Barn.

  13. I just finished a R&W quilt too. Your choice of the 9 patch in a 9 patch is classic and wonderful. Thanks for keeping me inspired to make another one as well.

  14. Yes, it's a classic! Personally, I like the beige over the white. It just seems older to me somehow. Good job!

  15. It is lovely! A group of us made that block into a quilt for a friend this year (blue & white). It's a classic!
