I have made several comforters, in the vain attempt to use up my scraps. Most of them are blue and green, reflecting my color choices. They are very addictive--I can't seem to stop piecing them once I have started. They are kind of crazy quilt style. I made 2 for my 8 year old twin granddaughters, but both reside in Caroline's room, as Rosie likes pink, and the comforters are basically blue.Off the Wall Fridays So I decided to make her a pink-lavender-lime green one. The heart is something I made in Jude Hill's class. It has hung over my sewing machine, but I thought that Rosie's comforter would be a better place for it.
I have included a picture of one of the blue green ones. Off the Wall Fridays

Comforters in progress
I have been using up my scraps to make comforters. I've not bought any new material--just trying to diminish my stash. Last year I made the blue comforter for Rosie and Caroline, my 6 year old granddaughters. It seems that Rosie has taken it over, and Caroline wanted a comforter of her own. Her favorite color is blue, so I wanted to make this comforter blue-ish. I have put pictures printed on fabric sheets of the twins and their cousins on the comforters. As you can see from the pile of fabrics I am working with, I am the original messy Bessie. I will back the new one with some blue fabric that I have, and tie it with blue yarn.
