Brenda's #3...Blue and white

 Here is the third of my friend, Brenda's, quilts. It is a blue and white one....very pretty. I think it is going to her sister. I did a panto on this one called Bright and Breezy by Lorien Quilting.

Quilted with Glide Hawaiian Blue on top. I didn't want to use white...it seemed too harsh on the dark blue.

The curves seemed to work with the sharp points of the flowers

The back is a white on white and I used Bottom Line White in the bobbin.

If memory serves, it is 64 x 80".  

Now to decide which one to do next.

Brenda's quilt #2

 This is my friend, Brenda's quilt #2.  There are numerous houses with embroidered flowers, too.

I think this is an interesting quilt. It's just a bunch of houses.....but,  each block has a word under the house.  And, usually, the window shows an example of that word.

There are so many different fabrics used in this quilt, you'll never tire of looking at it.

Since the theme was houses....i gave the border a picket fence.

And, here is the wild back.

The whole quilt was SID....took me a while.  

I have 5 more Brenda quilts to do.....on to the next one.
