This is another of Reethi's rangoli pattern.I will unfold it once she has quilted it and put it on her blog....this again I was pattern testing for Reethi.Not a difficult one at all,very colourful and easy even for beginners.The pattern for this will be on sale at http://globalnomadquilts.blogspot.ca/.
Do take a look at her blog too.

Manali's Quilt.

Some years back  in 2009, 6 of my students danced in Bharathathil Bharathi,a program featuring Subramanya Bharathi,a great Tamil poet.As a way of saying thank you to my students who had put in a lot of hard work,I made quilts for them.This one went to Manali,it adorns her bed and she says "I love it"!
Will try and post the other 5 too.

Reethi's 2nd Rangoli pattern

These are 2 blocks for Reethi's new Kolam block,have some work cut out for this coming week.Looking forward!Wish Chandra were also doing along......operation came at the wrong moment...She will be joining after the end of this month and when she gets a clean chit from her DR.

Finally finished!

It has taken me more than a year to finish this simple quilt top.....many other QT's  were done ,2 of Reethi's as pattern tester etc!In fact my brother  Sundar made a comment about finishing UFO's!!Want to send it for quilting.....the size now is 74"/86". Will add black binding once it gets back or ask Reethi to do it for me!!Its all from scraps.....but not making a dent to my stash(sigh)

Moroccon Morning

Another quilt top designed by Reethi! She has been inspired by a tile pattern...the size is 86" by 66". I always prefer queen to full or double,but while cutting ,cut only for double ,then when I wanted to enlarge it to queen....ran out of patience and also out of the blue fabric! It is quite an easy pattern.....couple of suggestions were made.....one felt a blue border would have been better,another was using 2 shades of blue instead of the yellow.
We are planning to send it for quilting and then will bind it with blue....will post picture once it comes back!
This pattern will soon be available on Craftsy.
