    Default Candy's Quilt

    I made this quilt for my friend, Candy. She doesn't know about it yet. I'm having dinner with her on Sunday night and will be giving it to her then. Last winter were were talking and I casually asked her what her favourite colour was, and she said blue, and added that she especially likes blue and white together, like blue willow china. I think this quilt captures the spirit of blue willow china quite well, and I hope she agrees! The fabrics were from my stash. The pattern is from Moda, and can be found here: http://www.modabakeshop.com/2011/12/...res-quilt.html Thanks for looking.

    Gorgeous quilt! I heard somewhere that blue and white quilts always do well at auctions. It's such a classic combination.
