I'VE BEEN INSPIRED

To say I'm not a "YELLOW" girl is an understatement, but this yellow Irish Chain quilt that I found on the internet inspired me to purchase some yardage of assorted yellows yesterday and make this exact quilt for myself. Of course when I got to my local shop "Quilting Possibilities" and saw her yellow display I wanted to walk away, mostly because they had so many in such a variety of shades that I didn't know what to do..... I eventually picked 4 I think and the salesgirl Fern wandered around the shop and picked up more. In the end I bought 15 prints and then this morning I cut into them to see how I liked the look.....







Here is my first block.....
I'm doing them 6.5 inches and using a Kona White for the alternating block.

Hi Peg...yellow is one of those funny colors...you either love it or hate it! But I think most projects sparkle with a dash of a yellow. Love your project...so fresh and happy.
