Welcome! Where in Alaska are you from?

Joan, If you get too stumped about color choices I can make plans to meet with you at our favorite quilt store and help you with choices...I love to play with colors...You might want to take a look at some of their fat quarter bundles...I just bought one the other day and the colors all blend together so well...

welcome from sunny spain, good luck with your yellow brick road quilt, I am sure with all the help and advice you will receive here it will turn out great :D

Howdy Joan and welcome from Texas. Here is my yellow brick road. It was fun to make and I thought it was very easy. I used lots of different yellow & blues, but I have seen it done in many other colors combinations and with as little as 5 different fabrics. Good luck with yours and just have fun with it. Post a picture when you get yours done, I love seeing everyones quilts. It is a real inspiration to me. :wink:

What a lovely quilt...the colours are beautiful, thats for sharing :D

Welcome aboard! You will find the friendlist people here! The last yellow brick road I made I used variations of yellow. It is my girl friends favorite color!

Keep on quilting!
Renae =)

Thanks Jaynie for the picture of your YBR quilt. It is beautiful and inspires me for my quilt.

Hi I am new to quilting also. Only been doing it for a couple years Yellow brick road is one quilt that is stuck in my mind to do in the future. I have looked for the pattern for it online . I have been hopeing to find it for free. So far I have had no luck.
I have joined a guild here in north Texas and have had fun learning from all the ladies . I have finished a few quilts but still have one that I want to handquilt and can't decide on how to do it. LOL I figure I will get around to it one day :lol: Right now I am busy working on a minature quilt for the guilds quilt show in September.

I'm anxious to find a patter for ybr also since I'm very very new to quilting. I also have problems or don't feel confident in picking fabrics. I'm from Wisconsin.

I've done a few YBR's. They are easy. You can always pick the colors from one designers line - get online and look at what the LQS's are offering 0r you can buy a fat quarter bundle and make several quilts from that. I find just going to a fabric store and trying to match things can be intimidating to do alone. Ask some one to come with you, or a knowledgeable clerk. If you google Yellow Brick Road Pattern you can find the pattern at many stores.
