I took a little mini vacation with my youngest.
We were away two nights.
There was a tiny bit of time for sewing.
Not too, too much.
After all...
There were bikes to ride....
Hikes to take...
and....
some serious reading going on...
*note the book peeking out under the table. ;)
I've now joined some blocks together.
Love the peaceful vibe of all that blue and white!
But...
Maybe it needs a POP of red!
Hmmm.....
I'm going to fold it up and let it
****PERCOLATE!!!****
Sometimes that's JUST what a quilt needs!

Hi Beth,
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if you meant perculate... mixing water and coffee into a yummy cuppa... sort of a steeping like for tea... marinating the flavors of the colors together? I always think every quilt needs red - my favorite color. In your case, I'm not so sure. It looks perfect to me.
Hugs
Thanks Terri! I fixed it! I Go W-A-Y to fast when I'm sewing...AND WHEN I'M TYPING!!! :/
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt -- how about a soft orange for your pop? Also love your mini quilt studio on wheels!
ReplyDeleteOh yes I am a strong believer in letting a quilt percolate (to become lively or active) sometimes on the second look it will tell you what it needs...sometimes :0)
ReplyDeleteI know you'll do what makes this one looks best as always.
Happy Sewing
Oh I love the blue & white! But maybe just a touch of colour on the edge. The possibilites are endless!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking a small red rectangle in a border of blue and white. Not too much. The blue and white really are so calming.
ReplyDeleteI let mine percolate all the time!
ReplyDeletelooking good
ReplyDeleteYou had me at "Blue & White"...then got me with percolate. :) Thanks for the great read for my early Thursday morning. Can't wait to see what simmers to the surface.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely vacation. Reading, biking, hiking and a little quilting. What could be better?
ReplyDeleteI really like the blue and white and agree a little red would make these pop .Glad you enjoyed a little vacation , sounded like lots of fun .
ReplyDeleteA fun two days, and now back at the quilt blocks. I love a simple two-color quilt and think they are very effecting. This one is soothing. But if you think it needs a pop, red would do it! Will await the pics to see what percolates.
ReplyDeleteI like it in blue and while. Your holiday sounds wonderful, biking hiking reading and sewing, perfect!!
ReplyDeleteOh, the quilts that are percolating in my sewing room! I like that spin on the quilts I can't figure out how to finish!
ReplyDeleteOh, I really like that! Blue and white together are stunning. And this modern block is great.
