I've been asked by my dear friend, Hogi, aka Karen, to make a quilt for her niece who has an upcoming wedding in May of 2009. I'm very excited. The bride to be loves pink and brown and Hogi and I talked and decided to do something that would be timeless rather than trendy. Here we get both, with the delicious collection of Charleston V by Judie Rothermel. We get the double pinks and browns of the Civil War era which have stood the test of time. We're thinking stars--Brittany's Stars. If you should have any ideas to make this timeless treasure even better, let me know. I'm ready to start this in about 1 week.

What a nice friend! I'm sure the quilt will be much loved.
Oh that is going to be sooo wonderful!
Which niece is this? I think the prints look good, and as you know, I love stars in quilts.
Your friend has a lucky niece. I'm certain whatever you decide, it will be spectacular!
Have a good day.

Those fabrics really are yummy! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Just went shopping for fabric for a patchwork vest, came home with pink and brown. The colors look good together. Looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.
This makes me think of ice cream--neopolitan. Maybe it will sub-consiously make her hungry.
