I discovered a stack of blocks today in my 'one day' heap. The blocks are
appliquéd cowboy boots. They must have been put away for something urgent.
Maybe I was just sick of appliqué or didn't know what to do next. For no
reason, I buy purple but never choose it when piecing. Well, today was the
day. I'm sashing the boot blocks with purple *and* a purple/lime/aqua
plaid. Oh my how dazzling. Now I know why you Poiple People are so crazy
about it. Make room for me over at the purple frame; I'll bring the
chocolate. Purple Polly

There is absolutely nothing to compare to purple and green :-). I
found a lovely little LQS when in Estes Park, CO last week and bought
three different purple and green fabrics -- mostly purple in the prints.
For me, green is a neutral -- it goes with every other color in
creation!! All those leaves and grasses, etc. Anyway, welcome to the
purple lovers pride :-)! CiaoMeow ^;;^

Never been a big purple fan myself - but one of my students
is doing a giant mariners compass in purple and bright lime
green, with purple and lime log cabin blocks as a border.

I will post pictures when finished. Stunning!!

Now me - I put a little bit of purple in every red quilt I
make!

How I wish I could show it to you. The boots are full of little surprises.
One boot top is fuzzy bees, one sports the Cat in the Hat, there's even one
in yellow trimmed with black and white polka dots. And yes, it's bootiful.

"Louise" I want to see it! It sounds "bootiful."

Polly - they sound divine! My bedroom is currently decorated in purple,
lavender and green and I just love it. When you're all done, maybe we
should plan a "hootenanny" - wha' da ya say??

Welcome to the Purple People group, Polly! We knew you'd come around sooner
or later! Your project sounds wonderful, especially with the plaid sashing.
Yummy!

Purple is lovely no matter what shade and since my maiden name was Green,
you can
guess my choice for neutral!
