Bonnie asked us "What's on your bed?" today. I'm not willing to show a picture of my bed *today* because I was in a rush this morning. But this is the quilt that's on my bed, and what it looks like on a good day. I really like this quilt. It took me 3 years to get up the nerve to cut into the fabric to make it, but once I did, it went together really nicely. I think if I were making it again now, with all I've learned, the borders would be different, and the quilt a touch larger for my queen-sized bed.
However, despite how much I like that one, this is the quilt that I wish was on my bed. My pink links is one of my favourite quilts, despite the fact that it's pink (not a typical colour for me). Sadly, it is a touch too small to really fit the queen size bed, especially after the first washing. So it tends to rest as a foot warmer on the end of the of bed, just so I can keep it out in the open. If/when I get a spare bedroom setup, this quilt is going on the guest bed.
I can see why - that's a lovely quilt.
ReplyDeleteBoth are beautiful...but I agree with you...I really really love the pink one...not my color either; but love the pattern and quilting.
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts are beautiful. I am building up to a blue quilt myself. Soon.
ReplyDeleteI really like both of your quilts. I like the graphics of both but have to admit I'm almost always drawn to blue.
ReplyDeleteLove the blue colors...nice quilts..hugs
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts are beautiful, but I prefer the dramatic look of the pink one too. My bed (the master one) does not even have it's own quilt, so I can't show it to you. Maybe one day. That doesn't mean I don't have lots of quilts though.
ReplyDeleteOOOOOO....I agree. That pink one is a charmer! But I have to say I like how the blue one frames your bed very nicely! I'm envious that you have TWO bed quilts! :-) You did a lovely job on both!
ReplyDeleteI love the blue quilt - that is one of my "someday" projects!
ReplyDeleteI love both quilts, but also agree with you because pink is my color!
