Colette's Tubix

Oh look, here's another Tubix.  This one was made by Colette, who blogs at What About Rheema who was another of the great people who tested the pattern for me.  So, without further ado, may I present Tropical Shores
I can really see why she has called it that, and if you click to enlarge the picture, you will see that the turquoise border even has little bubbles on it.  I love This version and think it's a great colour combination for a summery tropical quilt.  Thanks Colette for doing a wonderful job for me, even if you did have a few (unnecessary, as it turned out) worries about colours running when you washed it 

I finished sewing the binding on my own version of the quilt this afternoon while watching today's matches at Wimbledon ( Go! Andy) so I've just got a few more ends to bury and then I can show mine too.

  1. It has been interesting to see the same pattern look so different with each quilter's use of color.

  5. Well done Colette. It's amazing how all the colour ways make it a different quilt. You'll soon be able to have a virtual quilt show of all your tester's lovely Tubix! How did you quilt yours? Can't wait to see it. Enjoy the rest of the tennis and take care.
