for kristin

kristin-
i just loved the square you chose.  what a genius idea for a quilting bee- 13 different fabrics incorporated into each square.  i had great difficulty choosing a color scheme so i made two for you (you don't have to use both, of course).  i would love to see the other four blocks you made for ideas!  if anyone would like to share quilt ideas from your pinterest accounts i am interested in seeing them.  not sure how i will ever come up with an idea for my quilt come september.  thinking this would be a great one if i can't find another idea!  i hope you like these.  -camie
p.s. went to joanns yesterday and they were not familiar with denyse schmidt.  sorry!

  1. I love them both, Camie! The color schemes are fantastic! I can't wait to piece my quilt. I will post my other blocks soon, I'll send you some links too! Thanks again, Camie...

  3. Camie... you went the 2nd mile! Those are gorgeous!

    Sometimes the Joann customers know more about their fabric than the employees! I always find myself rearranging their bolts so that all of Denyse's fabrics are together. neurotic much? You can see some of her fabrics here: http://dsquilts.com/fabric_and_patterns.asp?PageID=242
    Two of her quilt patterns are now in the McCall catalog! http://dsquilts.com/news.asp?PageID=228&ImageID=670

    That fabric with the big orange chrysanthemum was the inspiration for the quilt on my bed!

  7. Nice work Camie. The orange dot in the center of your first block is actually Denyse Schmidt. What a lucky coincodence that you would add it to your block.
