Definition of Love

I call this quilt Love, Love, Love.

 love, love, love quilt 

It has Amy Butler Love, Denyse Schmidt Flea Market Fancy and DS Quilts, solids, some Japanese dot fabric, Lizzy House stripes and pearl bracelets, and Anna Maria Horner Innocent Crush to bind it---all of my fabric loves in one quilt.   It is one giant log cabin block with dense straight line quilting, which makes me swoon.  It has lime and aqua--two of my favorite colors--combined with a pinky red that I adore.

 love, love, love quilt

But, perhaps the best example of love that this quilt shows is in the video below.  My husband willingly stood outside in a slush storm for me to get a picture. He had to wait and wait for the wind to calm down for even a second so I could get a shot.



That is a lot of love.

Melinda, You have another very cool finish. I love the video wish we could have seen more but I can feel the chill in that wind and slush just with those few seconds.

This is a sweet sweet quilt! It looks amazing. I have always wanted to make a log cabin like this.

I have your vintage prints with the green solid fabric on my brain all the time. How did you come up with that color combination? Did you have the green already or did you buy it specifically for that project?

You make the prettiest quilts!
