    Default Addicted to purple quilts...

    I am simply addicted to making purple and white quilts. I will make other colors, but the purple ones just warm my soul. I just finished this purple quilt top. It is a block from quilterscache.com called Squares within Squares 2. It is easy and quick to make, and I always like the results. My quilt has 12 blocks and measures 52" x 64" and tHhe blocks finish at 12 inches.

    This quilt makes me smile and I like it. Thanks for looking. Hmmmm, I just previewed this and the purple looks a bit more blue than it is. I promise that it is purple. )

    Purple is definitely your signature color. Whenever I see "Dina" pop up in the "What's New" I know to look for a purple quilt. That's kind of cool that you are so passionate about a single color. I'm not sure I have a signature color. I know I use a lot of lime green.

    I have never noticed the "What's New" at the top, Zozee! Thanks for mentioning it. I will start looking there a lot. What a fun spot to start with. Yes, you can say purple is my signature color. If you use a lot of lime green, you may have a signature color too.

    How do you get your points so perfect? I'm struggling with mine. Sometimes they barely point to each other.
