Ginny B. and I crawled into the car for a 120 mile ride, and we sure enjoyed the eye candy at the Temecula Quilt Company! For the month of October, red and white quilts are on display ~
As always, they have other fun projects, too ~
~and these came home with me ~
All those pretty reds make me want to pull these out again
Happy Friday, ya'll!
Pokey...am green with envy here! I love that shop...only I've never been there. Love all the photos...and really love what you brought home for yourself! Glad you had a great day with your friend.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Happy Friday to you as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these! I love the double 9-patch set with alternating blocks on the ladder on the right in the first picture and want to make one. Although I had a red and white gingham kitchen (complete with red/white gingham glassware and pots and pans) back in the 70's, there's not much red and white in my life now. However, I'm sorely tempted to make another red and white quilt. Were all the reds you saw solids, or did the quiltmakers also use prints?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the eye candy. I LOVE red too. I really like the school house quilt in the photo. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI love 2 color quilts and white as one of the colors always makes the other color more delightful. However, I made "I Love You" quilts in red and white for my 3 daughters. After washing them they were pink and red. Learned my lesson to use color catchers after that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt shop! The quilts are gorgeous. You took home some good stuff, too. Red also is at the top of my color list. Have a fun weekend, Pokey.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday to you Pokey.
ReplyDeleteIt's cloudy, wet and cold here, and we haven't seen the sun for days, so your red and white brightened my day.
Looks as if you had a great day at the quilt shop.
Have a good weekend.
Patricia
What a great shop...and it looks like you and Ginny had a great day! All of those red and white quilts are gorgeous. There's just something so special and classic about red and white!

I LOVE "Red" too!!! TeeHee!
ReplyDeleteI'm so with you on the red love. What a neat display of red and white loveliness! Sounds like a really fun time.
ReplyDeleteI never thought I was much of a red person but I love red and white quilts.... and see one in my future!
ReplyDeleteThis shop is wonderful... wish we had something like that here!
What eye candy they had. I so love seeing quilts and these, only white and red were just outstanding. Your is going to be a beauty when its done I can tell by just seeing the blocks. Its so nice to get away from it all and have a great day, like you did. Trish
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun visit I had! Thanks for the lovely eye candy and for the RED! 8-))
ReplyDeleteI love all of that red and white; lots of eye candy there. I can see why you would want to work on your red and white quilt. It looks like your blocks are done, and the quilt would go together quickly!
ReplyDeleteFun eye candy!!
ReplyDeleteYou lucky girls! Some day I'm going to visit that shop. I hope....
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Thanks for sharing. So many beautiful red and whites!
ReplyDeleteI would have loved to visit this shop with you. The red and white quilts are so awesome!
ReplyDeleteI was there about a year ago--it is a lovely shop but surprisingly small! It was about 200 miles for me but I was already going to Murrieta :) Love the red and white display and your blocks.
ReplyDeleteWow! All the red and white quilts displayed together is really stunning.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day. We spent some time in Temecula one time on a wine tour originating in San Diego. It felt like Tuscany, Italy to us {although I've never been there?}.
ReplyDeleteI have only one red/white quilt in my collection, but I just love it. Great decorating piece for patriotic holidays as well as Christmas. I loved this post.
ReplyDeleteThose red and white star blocks are spectacular...can't wait to see them in a quilt! The red and white quilts in the shop are fun too! I wish I lived closer and could have gone to see them!
ReplyDeleteOh my, those red and white quilts are to die for!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, those red and white quilts are fantastic....there is something special about seeing so many together isn't there?
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, your blocks are beautiful they'll make a stunning quilt.
Happy sewing
Oh my Pokey, am I way behind on your blog or what?! It's been a crazy, hectic past couple of months and I'm ready to move on to a quieter month!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this post!! This is gonna sound crazy to you hehe, but I've been laying in bed the last two nights and waking up in the middle of the night thinking about my bedroom. I want to make it red, brown, tan, cream. I adore these red quilts and they would be perfect for this room. Now I'm gonna have another sleepless night cause I'm gonna be thinking about these gorgeous quilts, lol!
I would say this was worth the 120 mile ride! =]
