Here's
a sweet quilt that reminds me of April rain and flower blooms.
I used batiks of shades of peony pink, lavender, sky blue, light teal, sunny yellow and grassy green for triangles to accent the calm gray pin dots.
The backing is pieced using a white and gray wood grain
print, strips of 3” x 6” rectangles, along with a section of gray
dots.
Signs
of Spring is 48” square. I quilted with pale gray thread, doing
free motion scribbles diagonally across the blocks. The die is
another new design from Blue Wren, called X-Quisite.
April
is one of my favorite months. I just feel energized when the weather
is warm, with flowers blooming. And, my birthday is in a few days. I
think cake and ice cream should be on the menu, don't you?
