    Here are the fabrics I was sooooo lucky to find more of at Walmart this weekend. Now I can make my new Calif. King bed quilt. I will be using marbled rusts, blues, green and gold to go with these. I am still deciding between Garden Twist and Warm Wishes for the pattern. Here is the link to Warm Wishes: http://quiltmaker.com/patterns/patt83/index.html

    I am also including a pic of the final memory quilt for my friend Laura. This is using the same scrub tops and purchased fabrics in honor of her late friend Dena. I have posted pics of those in 2007. I can't believe I made 3 already, and still have fabric to make a queen size for Laura!

    this is Laura's quilt in progress. It is only about a twin size so far.

    Fabrics for my new bed quilt. Looks kind of like Hoffman's Kashmir, but these are Fabric Traditions.

    I know it's been done to death (or so say my friends) but I think that fabric on the left would make a fabulous stack-n-whack. What rich colors.

    I love your memory quilt! It is stunning. It draws me in and I find myself looking at it and studying it; very powerful.

    Gorgeous fabrics Wendy! I knew they would be. The scrubs quilt reminds me of a watercolor painting. So pretty!

    Laura's quilt is beautiful...

    I like the fabric you choose.. It will look beautiful no matter which pattern you choose.. I do have to admit I really like the Warm Wishes pattern though :lol:
