Tulips Aren't Green

Rainbow Flowers
This wall hanging took a lot longer than I thought it would. In fact, I still have some threads I need to tuck in in the back and it needs a label, but I just had to take a picture of it so I could feel accomplished.

I have a real love for bright, rainbow colors and every once in a while it manifests itself in quilt form. My stash is just full of brights, although I am very short on reds and oranges. It makes me want to go buy fabric, but I've been so good lately about using up my stash and not buying anything new. OK, I had a setback this week when I went to my local quilt shop in order to drop off a quilt top for Project Linus. I didn't intend on buying anything, but they had so many fabulous new fabrics that I couldn't help myself! I only bought $8 worth, so I don't feel too bad. I buy fat eighths in order to not feel so much guilt. I truly am a scrap nut. After I came home I realized that I completely forgot to check out their $0.10 scrap basket. I guess I'll save that for the next time!

The black border is fabulous. I love how it sets off all your bright colors.
