Picking fabric for a quilt from a photograph
This may seem a bit strange, but I love the colors in this dress and it's how I picked the colors for my this quilt. This post is from over three years ago and it has gone crazy on pinterest, if you would like to follow my boards HERE
Quilt Pattern is HERE
(photo from Vogue and I've had it for a while) |
Can you see it?
The purples, the pink/red sleeve, the green top
And a White added for the white Chair !
The only color that just didn't work for me was the black belt and I couldn't find anything I liked, so I just left it off.
Here's a look at one of the 16 blocks !
It worked !

Adding MY Painted Flowers to Doorway Glass
I have redone the glass at our front door. A few of the neighbors have put the reflection paper in...
but I couldn't just do that !
Here's what I've been working on, making home mine.
Off to Lowes (not a paid mention) measurements in hand. Wanted it to be easy to bend in. I needed nine inches, but this was cut eight inches and they cut my 80 inches. Board is just under 1/4" thick.
White Base coat
Folded graph paper and did drawings of flowers and stems, cut out.
Painted
This is why the board had to bend, I didn't want nails, used the plastic nooks so it can be taken up or down as I like. Would like to do more for seasons.
FROM the Outside, How loud do you think the condo association will YELL ? I NEVER mention what I do to them. Just let them notice on their own.
p.s. Would LOVE to paint this side too, but I'm going to wait and see, maybe picking my battles a bit?
