Anyone made a purple quilt?
#81
I made 3 purple strip quilts. I was only going for 1 but ended up with so much left over that I wound up with 3 (2 big and 1 baby quilt size). I used Bonnie Hunter's pattern Strip Twist found on her website: www.quiltville.com.

Well here is old noisy again. Purple is great. I have made three purple quilts. One was a log cabin. Since I hand quilt mostly in the ditch that was a hard one but my daughter-in-law took it. The next one was one of those puzzle quilts. I believe it was the Dutchman's Puzzle and Contrary Wife. Can't spell as usual. Don't know where the book is that I got that pattern out of. But it was a beautiful quilt, if you didn't look for the mistakes.
The third one was the best. Trail to Oregon. You use about 25 different prints of purple and white. I sold that one, but just for the price of the material I had in it. To one of my daughters-in-law's mother. Purple can be so pretty and don't forget the Purple and Red Hat ladies. I am going to join them one of these days. I forgot that my first purple quilt was Carpenters Wheel. That was a toughie. All those points in one place. Now I know how to take care of that but then I didn't.
