I'm pretty excited, because I finished Nathaniel's quilt top! But I'm changing the name from "Nathaniel's Quilt" to the "M&N (Painting Inspired) Wedding Quilt" - how's that for a name?
Anyways, back around Christmas time when I was in Florida, I sketched out what I wanted to do with my inspiration from Nathaniel's painting. I'm very much a visual person, so I have to sketch everything out if I'm not using a pattern. I pieced all the little colored blocks together as soon as I got back from Florida, but when it came time to cutting all of the background fabric, I ended up breaking the sketch up into five sections, so it made more sense to me.
I got the first section done yesterday, but I was able to finish the other four today while my girls were napping!
So here it is - excuse the bad picture. I tried taking an artsy picture outside, but the sun was going down, and the colors looked kind of washed out.
Oh my goodness! That's fabulous! Wow. They are absolutely going to LOVE. IT!! :o0 Great job!
