MarionsQuilts

Last year I did the double wedding ring quilt for a friend of mine, and really enjoyed making it. And then I saw the Bali Star Wedding Quilt and fell in love love love!

So, that is my project for 2017.

Ordered the pattern online, and started reading how much fabric I needed and almost had a heart attack! Found a place in NY - Mount Pleasant Quiilting http://www.mtpleasantquiltingcompany.com/ and they can make up the kit for you! I was thrilled. Spoke to a wonderfully fabulous amazing woman named Patti (so if any of you know her, feel free to show her this thread!) and told her what colour scheme I had in mind!

I didn't want to go completely bonkers with all those colours, and my bedroom is black, red and cream, so that is the colour scheme of my quilt. Red arcs and black stars and squares and a cream background

Here is a pic of the pattern for those that aren't familiar with it:

And here are the gorgeous fabrics that Patti chose for me!

I'm going to update this thread with all my progress, and likely questions!

Wish me luck, I'm thinking I might have bitten off more than I can chew ... but I have 11 months to obtain my goal LOL

I have been tempted more then once to make that one it is my favorite DWR variation including the original DWR. The fabrics your fabric fairy chose are AMAZING.

Love the colors. Good luck with the pattern. I'm about to start another of the Judy Neimeyer patterns.

It is cool that they would assemble the kit for you. Love the colors -- I will be interested in watching your journey.

Wow, beautiful. I am going to subscribe to this thread and watch your progress. I have the Bali Wedding Ring bed runner kit, plan to start it after I finish up some other projects.

I went to Mount Pleasant Quilting Company several years ago, and it's probably one of the nicest shops I've ever been in. Your quilt will be gorgeous!

I'm subscribing too. Not a real fan of red (I favour purples or soft pinks with greens) but your quilt will be fabulous.
