Virtual Quilting Bee – June

A Virtual Quilting Bee block for Anina of Twiddletails. This was a fun block to create. Very flirty and romantic. I don’t use those types of fabrics in my quilts very often but I sure do love them. I’m enjoying this project because it’s stretching me to think outside what I normally do.

Anina sent the center floral fabric and the pink polka dots. She requested that we use the floral as the center fabric framed by the pink polka dots. From there it was our interpretation of a log cabin block. You can see completed blocks at the Virtual Quilting Bee Flickr group.

    Oooh! I LOVE it! I don’t really use those fabrics either, which is why I chose them. I wanted to see what we come up with. So far, so good!

    I’m the same way. I just love the romantic fabrics but rarely use them.

    I love how each color is a different width. And that blue floral is a nice frame.

    I checked out the others and it’s amazing what different people do with the same fabrics!

    It’s beautiful! You’re like a quilting magician – individually those fabrics would do nothing for me, but put together like that they look romantic and elegant, it’s lovely!
