Back To Red And White.
Posted on | October 20, 2015 | 17 Comments
It doesn’t matter what I seem to do, I always come back to red and white in my quilts.
So, here is another one.
Not the best light or angle, but it gives a reasonable idea.
It is a combination of single squares and 4 patch blocks.
Lots of fabrics are the reverse pattern of each other in the red and white. In this quilt it worked well.
Lots of cross hatching in the quilting.
Pebbles in the inner border and loops in the outside border.
More red and white for the backing. The binding repeated the last border.
The quilt turned out slightly smaller than a single bed quilt. I would like to make this pattern again into a much larger quilt but had to make do this time with the amount of fabric I had.
Here is the link for the pattern.
I have 5 more quilts sandwiched and ready to quilt. I really do need to get my skates on.
Have a wonderful week.
Cheers, Karen

I love your finish Karen, you cant beat the red and white combination and this design shows off the fabrics well. Love the quiting you did too. You have a busy time ahead with more quilting – enjoy!!
Your quilting is great. By the time you finish the next five, you will be a pro.
Love this quilt! I must download the pattern in the near future I will have a lovely stash of blues needing a project.

Love the classic red and white combination Karen- yours is lovely! The quilting really adds another dimension to it!
Red and white such a classic combo so I can understand you coming back to it over and over. Your quilt is wonderful and such a clever pattern for just squares and 4 patches. It’s perfectly quilt too, I’m always impressed by pebbles! Good on you for having such a great year of finishing quilts!
I love it! And what is better than red, I’d like to know. ;) Really, it is just beautiful. I like everything about this one.
You keep coming back because it is a winning color combination! Doesn’t it feel good to finish? The quilting looks great too!
