Last year I got these yummy fat quarters from the Sturbridge Village Harvest by Judie Rothermel Range. I really love the colours. I just happened to have enough fat quarters (24) to make a bed sized wedding ring quilt. All I need now is 4.5metres of background fabric - and I have this lovely dark creamy fabric with little flowers - the alternative is to use cream quilters muslin. I'll have to think about it for awhile before cutting the background fabric.
Wish me luck ... I think I will make this quilt for my darling husband ... I have never made him a quilt before, and I'm sure he will like the colours.
Happy Quilting for now ... Jane x

Good luck on the Wedding ring quilt.
I made one for my brother http://becclarke.blogspot.com/2008/07/wedding-rings-other-things.html
have a look.
You will be so pleased when it is finished though, I had never done curves before but I used a Matilda's template set and it was so wonderful. It too ages too as I made it really big to fit over a queen bed.
What a lovely gift for your husband.
Oh my... Breathtaking! I will be eagerly following your progress... Jane, I would chose the white you have in the picture as background, It is perfect!

Oh yes Bec, your wedding ring quilt is very lovely - I like the colours you used too!
And thank you Valentina for your comments too - I have some of the colours sitting on the quilters muslin - it looks pretty good as well - I will think about it for awhile before I choose.
