hope valley quilt progress…

I’m still working on the Hope Valley quilt in oranges and purples. I’ve been trying my best to use only the fabrics from the fat quarter set I bought at Denyse’s studio sale, but I finally had to admit that I wasn’t going to have enough for the backing and binding.

So now I’m stalled for a bit while I wait for extra fabric to arrive. Turns out I needed more of the Hope Valley (and really, who can resist?) as well as more of the solids. For those who’ve asked, the solids I’ve used are all Kona cottons, in Amber, Chocolate (or maybe Coffee, I can’t remember!), Rose and Plum. The white is Kona Snow.

Anyway, I hope to be able to show you the final product soon!

Also, thanks for such a great response to the new Flickr group! I think it will be a great place for questions and answers and any other quilting discussions. I’m embarrassingly bad at answering questions that are asked here (sorry!), but I think I can be better on Flickr. We’ll see. If you have any pressing questions, head on over and post them in the discussion section of the group!
