I made this quilt after seeing one like it at a quilt shop...
Rather than buy the pattern, I drew a quick sketch, and went from there.
The red and green squares make the quilt look a little Christmas-y, especially at this time of year. But that wasn't the original intent.
I was first drawn to the beige print with its delicate red flowers and green leaves - then I added fabric in those colors too.
Imagine my surprise to see a variation of it on this blog from Portugal. Same pattern, different colors. This one is full of sunshine and warmth!
Same basic pattern - yet so different!
