Red & White For Christmas
Red & White For Christmas
And Valentine's Day. And for summer. And spring. Because it's Monday. Really... is there ever a bad time for a Red & White quilt?
Yes, Infinite Variety, NYC, May 2011. It was magical.
While red and white quilts have always been collectible, this show created a resurgence of interest in red and white quilts of every kind. From quilts made with two fabrics, or those made with a variety of reds. And shades of white and cream.
Red & White Quilts - published by Martingale earlier this month.

All of these quilts were part of the Special Exhibit for Red & White quilts at Quilt Market and Quilt Festival in Houston - sponsored by Moda/Martingale. We shared a few of those pictures here.
While you should start a red and white quilt today - or soon - if you'd like to finish something by Christmas, maybe a pillow.
We shared these pillows in July 2016 - Christmas in July.
If you've only counted thirteen quilts from the book...
This is Walk This Way. I made this one. It won't be home for Christmas this year but that's okay - it means I've got a good jump on Christmas 2019!
And so will you. We're giving away three copies of the Red & White Quilts book. Leave a comment by Midnight on Thursday, December 6 CST telling us whether you've ever made a red and white quilt. And if you did, was it two fabrics or scrappy?
Happy Monday!
