Your "dream quilt" - what pattern is it? Colours? Have you made it? If
not yet, why not? Mine is Storm at Sea in shades of dark blue & light
blue & white, but I have to finish two quilts I'm making right now, then
I want to start it!

Hi Jo,

Mine is a Clarice Cliff quilt - I have all the materials required but have never got around to doing it - have had the materials for 4 years now and will probably another 4 before I get around to it.

My favorite is a double wedding ring. I have made several, finished
several and dream of a couple other ways to do them. Winding ways
is calling too. Taria

Jo, great minds think alike! I finished my Storm at Sea last year and
am soooo happy with it. I did it in a lite-sky-blue and
dark-sky-blue. Just the 2 colors. I love the wave effect of it. I
did mine using the paper-piecing method which made all the points work
out very nicely.

KT.

So far, all my quilts have been a simple block or hexagon made with scraps
in a checkerboard pattern with off white blocks. Once I made steps in 4
shades of blues for my sister. My dream quilt is a storm at sea. I have
the pattern but haven't made it. I want to make it out of different blues.
Something always gets in the way to stop me. Oh well!

I did a lap-quilt-size blue & White Storm at Sea several years ago. It's
very scrappy. All the blues and most of the white are from my stash. I
love it; it lays over the back of one of our living room chairs.

I think my dream quilt would be a whole cloth with an appliqued
medallion in the center and possibly appliqued border, hand applique and
hand quilted. I will never make it -- too much arthritis in my hands.
