Or ?????? ... should I spend my energies creating something like this?????
You've seen two of these before, but a third (Joan's, left) has been added to the mix - DH and I both thought this array looked like candy or like those Italian glass paperweights. Joan's is especially "valuable", meaning she was immensely successful in blending VALUES, in addition to blending her many colors. We both took the same class by M'liss Rae Hawley last October at QuiltNebraska in Chadron. The variety of fabrics in her Kaleidoscope is amazing!
This is a photo collage for a workshop I'm presenting in September that is already filled! How nice is that?
Thank you to my friends Sue, for filling in during my absence, and to Joan, for your amazing talent!
Should I mention that early this morning I finished another K quilt top and it's ready for sandwiching? (On good, another trip to the LQS for batting.) 8-))
These quilts are so charming. Love the color combinations. They are all lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe quilts are stunning!
ReplyDeleteLove them. I like Ricky Tim's K quilts too. Just when I am seriously attacking my UFO's you had to go and post another temptation! LOL.
ReplyDeleteGreat quilts, Elaine. Keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteWow, don't these look great all together? Thanks for that inspirational photo! I see your friend Joan used some large florals and maybe some batiks? to help with the color progression. She did a bang-up job!
ReplyDeleteHow great that you're doing a workshop AND it's already full! Yay for you! Wish I could come, but NE is a bit far!
I love the way the designs seem to overlap on these quilts. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS quilts! WOW!
ReplyDeleteI love Joan's quilt. You know how much I love multicolor quilts.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely stick with those!! Tracey
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts! I just love the color and value combinations. It takes a very good eye to have such beautiful combinations like those. You just amaze me how many quilts you have made, and each seems more beautiful than the last.
ReplyDeleteFabulous quilts!! I now have my kaleidoscope book, fabric strips and ruler out for the next new project. :-)
ReplyDeleteEach time I see your kaleidoscope, I love it more. Must do!!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking quilts. I would love to be in your class!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! I am making a simple K quilt, and it is now a UFO. I can't imagine doing them with pieced triangles!
ReplyDeleteThat picture is beautiful, so full of color. Congrats on a full class. I wish I could be there to participate. Looking at your quilts makes me want to get the two kaleidoscope quilts finished that I have started.
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing ..... I must make one at some point!
ReplyDeleteEager to learn the secret to getting the fabric strips just right. To make the best of fabric on hand.sew peacefully
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful picture they make together one even prettier than the next, but impossible to pick a favorite. I wish I lived close enough to take your class.
ReplyDeleteOH! The colors are GORGEOUS! The pattern reminds me of the pattern years ago when the TV station would go off for the night.Remember the bullseye pattern? Gee...I'm dating myself aren't I? heheheheheh
