    Default purple rail fence started

    I finally got my last quilt finished and started my purple rail fence today. Thanks for all the advice I got from folks when I was trying to figure out where I wanted each fabric. This picture is just of the blocks laid out on my design wall, but I am going to be very pleased with it.

    Thanks again for the help!!

    My very first quilt was a purple rail fence, LOL. I loved it and I love yours too. Thank you for sharing.

    Hmmm, the picture looks much more blue than the fabric really is. Oh well, I like it in blue too.

    One of the prettiest rail fence quilts I have ever seen was done in the purples and white, like yours.
    Only difference ... the white was an eyelet lace set over top a purple.

    Very nice! I love the way the purple pieces seem to "float" by themselves.
