Here is the link to the purple quilt that I made last year. I hope the link works, this is the first time I have tried.

OMG, I am so into making purple quilts. When I started thinking about it, I realize I've made quite a few. Here are some that I've taken pictures of. I also have one that is a tumbling block charm (no 2 pieces are the same fabric) that I hand pieced, just to try it out, and to have something to do "on the road."
Bargello I made from a fabric collection

Has anyone made a Yellow Brick Road in different shades of purple? Does anyone has a pattern they used and liked in purple? I am all ears.

I've made a couple of purples & pinks quilts. The main problem with both of them is that I don't have enough contrast in value (light/dark) and all the sorta mediums just blend together. Guess this demands a fabric shopping trip...oh darn...LOL!!!
