This is sooo very lovely. Hard to belive those bright colors were used in the 19th century. I envy your quilting relationships. It sounds so lovely. I just started quilting in 2007. My maternal grandmother made a quilt as a wedding present for my parents. It was all hand pieced and hand quilted Dresden Plate pattern with curved edges to match the pieces. After that long hard work for her first quilt, she never made another.

I don’t dye (well, rarely), but you have made me want to get back to making beautiful accidents! Thanks for the pictures!

Wow! Those turned out to be beautiful even if they started out as a “failure”… I love how “failures” can turn into something that works, even if not for the original purpose…

These are scrumptious! Perhaps this should be your new direction.

I think they turned out great! I know you were probably really upset when it first happened and you had to get some more fabric. But overdyeing worked great !

We had the same arubpt change her in Delaware, though the temps did spike this weekend. I’m very content with cool weather. I LOVE FALL. =) My design wall has always been the floor or my queen size bed. Crawling around on the floor is just another part of the process. I really like your blog and would love it if you visited mine!
