Finding Rainbows

Hello again dear readers.....it's been a grey old stormy january week here, with only a tiny bit of sunshine.........but we had bright quilts, fabrics and flowers to cheer us up on the gloomy days.....
.........lots of flowers on the kitchen window sill, and crocus bulbs peeking through........
.........and fabric rainbows to enjoy for more colour therapy............this is my rainbow quilt made from tilda fabrics.....the pattern is in my etsy shop link in sidebar and you can buy kits for it from gotkwilts.com
.........or just use up all your pretty tilda scraps as i did.......it's a great scrap buster project and fun to use the rainbow as a guide for choosing fabrics......
..........the quilting is a circular spiral design which was done by longarm machine for me.......
...........playing with colourful fabrics and looking at paintings, flowers and quilts really helps me through the dark grey days at this time of year.............
.............here are some early pictures of the rainbow blocks being made...........
............they are a mix of many tilda collections, old and newer and i love how the tilda fabrics always work together whichever collection they are from.........
.............more of my kitchen flowers........ love the white edge of these primulas......
.........and always love some pink ones............
........so glad of tulips all through january too, always plenty in the greengrocer's or supermarket before the garden ones come into flower much later........
...........thanks for coming to see me here and for your kind comments and messages...........always lovely to hear from you dear readers.................wishing you happy cheerful days in the coming week......with lots of colour, flowers and crafty times..................take care lovelies...................back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
