    I am wanting to make a completely feminine quilt any thoughts or ideas? I still have a very soft spot for pinks. Thanks for any suggestions.

    I think it's more about the colors than the block.

    I agree it's more about the colors...any pattern can be made feminine or masculine by the colors used.

    I agree with all of the above. However one other thing I consider feminine is a floral applique.

    I'm really hooked on Dresden Plates. I just love making them. I made a wall hanging with pinks and greens. I think it looked very "girlie"

    I love pinks also. I just had a thought- a hankerchief quilt or embellishments, buttons, etc.

    How about a pink, pastel D9P? They are so easy, quick & pretty! Have fun!
