Old German Christmas 13, 14 from Virtual Quilter

One of the things I have always loved about designing and making quilts is being able to change the colour scheme to suit the occasion, season, or the colour scheme of the room the item is destined to be used in. In particular, I love adding red, white and green, with touches of gold, to add a touch of Christmas.

And I love that even the cat on the quilt can be colour matched!

Old German Design Quilted 15, 16 from Virtual Quilter

I love playing with the pieces of one block to create new variations of the basic block. When I started playing with this design I thought it had some possibilities, but it has stretched to way more variations than I thought it would, and the more block variations there are, the more layouts of those blocks are possible.

Love the second design.

Old German Design 12, 13, 14 from Virtual Quilter

This project file is based on just one block which is included in the Electric Quilt block library, but with a lot of modifications of the original layout.

The shapes have been bent, twisted every which way, or they have been deleted or multiplied, and the applique blocks have become a large collection of quilting motifs.

When I selected these designs I liked the last one more than the other two, but now I like the first tow more than the last! I am allowed to change my mind.
