Quilt Show for Red and White Quilts

Quilt Show for Red and White Quilts made prior to 2014.

 

Most of you have seen this before but I thought I'd show it again for the Red and White Quilt Show over at SewCalGal.

I made this back in July 2012.

Red hasn't always been one of my favorite colors but I had seen so many red quilts that looked awesome so I just had to make one myself. And I am so glad I did.

 

I found this pattern in a jelly roll book done in blue.

So I went digging in my scraps for all the red I could find.

The white fabric has little red dots on it - I bought that about 25 years ago to make my girls an outfit.

I use red thread and white thread in the quilting.

This was the 1st time I had ever done that.

 

If you have a red and white quilt go to SewCalGal and enter.

I can't wait to see all the quilts.

Red Quilt done

I worked all day Saturday trying to get this done and I took it out of the frame around 10.

The pictures aren't that great. I can't seem to take very good pictures but that's probably a good thing too - you can't see all the mistakes.

Red Quilt

I went digging in all the tops I have that need to be quilted and I pulled out this one.

I have quite a few of my own that I would love to work on but most of them need bordeers and I'm too lazy to add them right now (the mechanic drives the worst car - right)

I put it in the frame last week and just haven't started working on it until yesterday. I'm using red thread on the red and white thread on the white. I sure hope I don't screw it up.
