I love color..

It gives me joy. And this, every time I walk in and see it. Then I get to slide under it.💙💜
Hand stitched, vintage patchwork quilt..

My grandmother used to make quilts like that. She called them crazy quilts. She saved every scrap of fabric from making clothing, and even cut up clothing she was about to throw away.

If you love color, try painting your wall behind the bed the same bright green as the solid green square in the top photo. It would cause all the blues in the quilt to pop.

@4meAndyou Aaww, a bygone era.

My walls are a light soft grey and I was thinking something with blue in it. Maybe a blueberry that has a hint of purple.

@Magenta Sounds lovely. Of course, the quilt will disappear...too much blue.

@Trippy 😊That would be great but I'm trying to stay with cool colors for the bedroom. Blue shades.

@Magenta To the touch 😆 It looks like it has such textures too! Well, even cosier inside then with the other layers too 😊

@Magenta The one grandmother I got to know some, made some lovely quilts. They are surely vintage and hand stitched, but not quite as appealing (to me) as the one pictured.

@Piper How special.
I was never that fond of most quilts actually.

There's a lot of sewing in that.

@BoobooSnafu Indeed. And it's not all perfectly straight which adds to the charm.

@Magenta there is something very unique about handstiched things...they always have more character.

My daughter recently made her friend a blanket ...and one corner went all wrong .

She obsessed about it, but time limited her from fixing it.
Yet....when it was all finished ...that wonky corner gave it personality.

You're right....it really does add charm.
