Changing Directions

I ended up changing out the triangles for the Kaleidoscope quilt.  When I originally asked my daughter I had only cut out a few triangles. When I had more of them done I put them both ways on the quilt and she told me she liked them both ways. I found the same colour together washed out the stars shapes. I got the triangles put on and am now working on the outer blocks.

Happiness Is a Kaleidoscope

I am so happy! I get to start on a new quilt since I finished my Autumn Moons quilt top. I have really liked the Kaleidoscope quilt block since I did a block for it for my Bee Beautiful group 6 years ago. Now I get to make one for myself using fabric my son purchased for me. I am using the Marco Polo pattern for the layout of the quilt because I like how the blocks are used to make an inner border. I had a couple of ideas for the diamond shapes which are formed which is why I have not squared off the blocks yet.

Happiness also is having a wonderful husband. I showed him the first block I had made for it, and he said great points! That is one of the best compliments a quilter can get. We just recently celebrated our 20th anniversary and they have been filled with love, and for him, having to/choosing to attend many quilt shows with me! I am very lucky!
