It's ALMOST a top.
I need to add a colorful crumb border. I hope it will look like those little kaleidoscope pieces before they form designs.
I used crumbs in the corners of each 12 inch kaleidoscope block so that's why I'm going to add the border...plus it will get rid of some of those itty bitty scraps.
This is one of the projects I worked on for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. Each month I made a block out of the color of the month, the color of the month plus the previous month and the color of the month plus its color complement.
Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2015 is about ready to start. If you've got scraps and want to use them up then join us in 2015. I've seen a lot of gorgeous and inspiring scrap quilts in progress.
I LOVE IT! It's awesome!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Congratulations on a great "almost" finish. That crumb border will be such fun to put together.
ReplyDeleteNow that is one phenomenal scrappy deliciousness colorful wonderful best sort of quilt EVER!!! LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous. I love the way you combined the colours from two months and then also did the compliment of the colour. The books all fit so well together and just flow from one to the other. Beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the crumbs in the corner. What great planning for the crumb border. Use up those scraps!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I also like the idea of combining the colors over the months. I might have to steal that idea.
ReplyDeletethis is amazing Cathy! I like that idea of combining monthly colors...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteColour explosion! How wonderfully delicious! A great finish (almost).
ReplyDeleteI love every little thing about this quilt. I'm sure we'll see a lot of rainbow scraps project next year with a similar approach to combining colors ... and one of them will probably be mine :-)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a rainbow quilt...MMMMMMMMMM So colorful! Delish!
ReplyDeleteI've been saving larger scraps lately so I can scrap along with the RSC. See you there.
Hugs
The colour buzzing around in this quilt is amazing.
ReplyDeleteIt is one of those quilts which make you feel happy to see it. The way you made up these blocks over the months is inspired!!
Oh my! What a delightful riot of color! I wasn't sure about those blocks throughout the year - just couldn't picture them together. But you obviously had a vision, and I'm sooooo impressed. Can't wait to join the RSC in 2015.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fun, fun quilt! I'm glad I got to watch it evolve over the year and see the blocks in all their final glory!
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! Love all the colors especially taken against the crispt white now.
ReplyDeleteWow...it looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOh my, Cathy, it's gorgeous! I have been looking forward to seeing your finished quilt (almost finished) all year. Your blocks each month gave been spectaular.. but not as spectacular as this!
ReplyDeleteWow! Bright and beautiful! It's a stunning top.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the way this came together - supercalifragilistic- expialidocious work!!!!!!!

ReplyDeletewhat a great strategy you used (colour of the month, plus last month's and then it's colour wheel opposite). Brilliant idea for an equally brilliant quilt. Happy new year and I look forward to seeing what you do with RSC15
