Texas Tumbleweed

This is my next project to quilt on my DSM.  It sure looks better in the photo than in a pile in my living room!  It's about 76" x 86", and only pin-basted here.  From Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville.com, who calls hers Texas Tumbleweed.   I might rename mine something like Nebraska Wind.   I LOVE those long diagonal green paths.  The orange was "iffy" but I've learned that every quilt I make profits from something "iffy".

  1. OH I love it! I especially like your constant greens...it just makes the diagonal movement even better. Love it!

  2. A pinch of iffy in a quilt is the ingredient that makes it pop! Your quilt turned out nicely, Elaine. (Please show a closeup of the quilting, per your discussion on the Yahoo group.)

  3. Whatever you name it, this quilt does have great movement.
    I like to think of the "iffy" as more of a "sparkle". :)
