Same fabric/Different patterns





Some time back I asked the BB quilters if they thought two quilts made with different patterns would look good together and I got encouraging emails so I thought I would share them with you. I just finished the quilts and a wallhanging. They are all made out of the same fabrics but with different patterns - a ribbon star and a four patch star in the quilts. The wallhanging has 3 dimensional stars attached with buttons. You can't see it but the stars are quilted into the white squares of the ribbon star and the border. The quilts are hand quilted.
Happy Quilting,
Linda in AZ

  1. Linda, your idea of using different patterns was great! And the wall hanging adds to the theme of the room. I very much like what you've done!

  2. Excellent choice of patterns and a very nice theme ... almost makes me think you might be a transplanted Buckeye, though, because my first reaction was those look like Ohio State colors.

  4. I love the 3-d stars with buttons! I'm impressed that these are hand quilted. I wouldn't get the wallhanging done in my lifetime, let alone two big quilts!!! Way to go!

  5. Great job Linda - great idea. Are these in the same room? Sure beats making 2 of the same quilt. Keep up the good work. NancyH
