Hi There!
I had been asked to make a baby chick quilt and yesterday, Gilbert and I went to Mardens and picked up the main colors, of this quilt. I will probably be adding a couple other (minor) colors, as well. (Keep in mind that my camera color skills aren't the best.)
I've been told that when you have a blue quilt, you need to add a touch of green, to make the quilt "sparkle". *s*
Gilbert sketched it out on a note pad and yesterday evening, I filled in the colors.
Once again, the chicks will NOT look quite like these. This sketch was just to give me an idea on where to start.
Well, for a nano-second, I had hesitated on whether to try and use my EQ 5 (Electric Quilt 5) to do the design, but I just know the basics on this program and HONESTLY.... I wanted to sit back, relax, sketch and color... with my brand new box of Crayola Coloured Pencils!!!
LOL

I'm still not sure on the corners.
I might change it into corner blocks.
Not sure.
I might even add a blue and green hen, in each corner.
Dunno. We shall see.
"Baby Chicky" quilt's fabric is now washing, as I type this.
Gilbert and I have NO ERRANDS to run this weekend. We're supposed to hunker down. I'll be working on quilts and he's supposed to put a coat of paint on a door that's going in Bertha's room AND spend a LOT of time with Bertha, as well!
Should be a fun weekend!
