Sunny Days are Here Again

Need a quick color fix?  Maybe pictures of the latest quilted throw will do the trick.  You may remember the beginnings of this project--here and here.  One charm pack and one jelly roll of Amy Butler's Soul Blossoms with white Designer Solid and Fuschia Dapples, all from Free Spirit.  It's quilted with Amy's Soul Blossom thread collection, color 0726 Bright Pear.
The sun was shining brightly this afternoon and a quick shot in the dappled shade under the mandarin orange tree seemed appropriate.  I was sorely tempted to throw myself down on all that color and not move for the next hour or so.  But there is work to do and quilts to sew and no time for slacking.  But more on that at a future date.
Hang in there!  The weekend will be here soon.

  3. Your quilt is so sumptuous, Amy Butler's fabrics are just so beautiful and don't they look great with the Fuschia Dapples! You were strong to resist it's lure but I know the creator in you had other things to do.

  4. This is beautiful, Melissa. And the sunshine...I'm jealous! Iowa weather has not been kind to us this year as of yet. Thank you for sharing your lovely quilt and your sunshine! :o)

  5. That certainly is a burst of juicy color; and you know how much I love color. Thanks for your great words today on my blog. It means a lot to me. I think I may use some of Amy Butler's fabric on the second lamp. Carolina
