Quilts and Nature
Kathie has been doing a "study" of brown on her blog and I had suggested a combination of brown and blue. After taking down Christmas quilts and decorations I hung this little basket quilt up, then on my way back into town this morning I shot a quick photo of the brown and blue of Central Oregon. I like them both!!!

I have wanted a basket quilt collection for ages. I like the block design of yours. I do have several quilts made up or in the works with baskets.
ReplyDeleteIs the blue and brown basket quilt a vintage quilt? It is really nice looking if it is a reproduction.
ReplyDeleteNature never fails to inspire, does it? :)
I just re-read my comment....either way, reproduction or not - the quilt is a great little quilt!
ReplyDeletenice shot of Central Oregon! I'm up here in Seattle and we've had some stunning weather in the last few days. Been meaning to tell you I am copying your Candy Stix quilt as a graduation present for an art major. It has every scrap in the basket in it. Thanx for such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful basket quilt in a color combo that is a favourite of mine!
ReplyDeleteVery nice basket quilt - I especially like the quilting!
ReplyDeleteWhat agorgeous quilt. Is it new or vintage? I can't tell.
ReplyDeleteYou're lucky you're not buried in snow and have some colour there. The basket quilt is lovely, I'm getting quite fond of them and it has a great colour scheme.
ReplyDeleteOh I love those baskets...what a great block!
ReplyDeleteI like the basket block variation. Seems like everything goes with brown--guess cause it's a neutral (according to Clinton and Stacey on What Not to Wear).
ReplyDeleteOH, pretty baskets! I bought a block of the month with butternut and blue blocks, and really need to dig it out. It is a favorite color combination.
ReplyDeleteoh I just love this one
ReplyDeleteand YES brown is a neutral
I am considering brown and bright greens next :)
LOL

I love brown and blue together!
ReplyDeleteI did a quilt for my son andrew in that scheme - it was before digital - so don't have a photo to share - it's a great combo!
Love basket blocks, Really doesn't look like a repro, It looks antique.
ReplyDeleteLove your blue and brown quilt! I think those colours are one of my favourite combinations. Beautiful photo of the snow covered mountains in the distance.
ReplyDeleteFirst off...I LOVE this brown and blue basket quilt....I have been eyeing my pinks and browns in my stash.....and second....I had you living in Pennsylvania not Oregon...???? But who is in Pennsylvania I am thinking of???.....hhhmmm....now I'm confused...HA!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Beth...????
I just happened on your blog and love it. I am putting you on my follow list.
ReplyDeleteLove both quilts!
That's okay, go ahead and show me the sunny blue skies! It's nice to see something without WHITE! Love the basket quilt, it's a great quilt. I also like blue and brown together. Earth and sky, two of my favorite things, lol, I think a song is coming on, lol!
ReplyDeleteBlue and brown is a great combo in quilts and outdoors, too. What a fab view!
