a quilt a day: parade of houses.

March 21, 2013 by carolyn friedlander 5 Comments

I had a lot of fun designing my Local quilt, and I’m really into the idea of not only the project as a whole, but also breaking it up into fun, little flavorful goodies. I’ve got a few that I haven’t gotten around to officially sharing, and now is as good a time as ever.

 

This here is my lone local or local-let, as I like to think of her. She’s a leftover from my planning period that I recently polished off with some borders and all the usual finishings.

Then we’ve got some yellow with House no. 3.

And plum.

I am massively into the plum and gold fabric in the house on the left. Glorious I tell you.

      Thanks Eileen! All of the fabrics that I used for backgrounds in these projects came from my recent line, Architextures, that is out with Robert Kaufman. 🙂
