Kathie, it's gorgeous! I don't think I could part with it either!
That quilt is Gorgeous!! I would love it on my bed!! I hope they keep making the red toile for years to come also.
JUST GORGEOUS !
I also fell in love with that Red toile fabric when it came out ... so much I bought 6 yards :-D Still not enough ;-)
Beautiful!
great quilt Kathie!
I used that same bird toile in tan for my big stars. It is a fabulous print.
Love that bird toile and paired with those red squares--I can see why it is your favorite --just spectacular...Julierose
Lovely quilt! I have brown and white bird toile plates that I just love.
I love it! I looked at that fabric for the backing of my red and white sampler, but wasn't convinced I needed a $70 backing!! It is awesome in your quilt!!
Oh yes, I agree! It's gorgeous, absolutely beautiful!
So very lovely Kathie!! Enjoy. :0)
It's fabulous, absolutely love it!
I'm so happy that you're finishing a quilt for yourself ~ and a dream one, at that!
It's stunning, and, yes, looks like an antique! Fabulous job, Kathie! I'm glad you're keeping it!!!
It's very beautiful Kathie! I love birds ... and red/white too.
definitely a keeper! it's beautiful!
It's so gorgeous, Kathie! I do love that toile and ordered a bunch so I would have plenty :D It's a beauty!
Lovely! Amazing how the right fabric and simple pattern can turn out so wonderful!
You are so right. The bird toile fabric is so elegant and you just can't beat the color red! Your quilt is beautiful.
It's beautiful, Kathie!
Oh, now I need to find some of that glorious fabric. Hadn't thought I would do a red and white quilt but this is convincing me otherwise! It is truly spectacular!
A truly beautiful quilt. When you started it, I was inspired to purchase some of that fantastic toile.
Kathie I don't blame you one bit for keeping this one. It is so beautiful. Hugs
Amazing quilt! I love anything red and white toile! So beautiful.
The close-up photos of this quilt really do show off the magic of this gorgeous toile!!! You did a great job and I especially love the fact there is no border!! It's fabulous!!!!
It is beautiful! Love toile! Whenever I see one that I like I buy yards and yards of it!
Gosh Kathy, this quilt is a masterpiece. Love it!
Kathie, It's simple but stunning. I love scrappy quilts, but this two fabric quilt really makes an impression. Thanks for sharing, Kathie L in Allentown
Yummy! I love the bird toile as a backing as well.
The bird toile is so beautiful and really does make your quilt look vintage. Glad to hear you are keeping this one for yourself. I don't think I would be able to part with it either.
It's definitely gorgeous. I will keep that for me too wink wink!!! Yes it does look antique already. I would love the see the quiltings - Hugs Nat
It's stunning, Kathie! And, of course, it looks like an antique! A very well preserved one! And yeah, that toile is gorgeous!
Kathie, it is a thing of beauty! I might just have to make a miniature.
Kathie it's a real BEAUTY! You're right...it looks like an antique right now!
Drop dead gorgeous!!!!! Definitely looks like an antique.
I'm sooooo glad to hear you're keeping it for yourself. woohoo!!!!
Kathie,
I have been searching for a different toile so that I don't totally copy you, but I keep coming back to these delightful birds!
Love it. Is it alright if I make one just like it? Well it probably wouldn't look just like it.... I'm not the best sewer : )
Such a gorgeous finish Kathie!
So pleased you will keep it for yourself! What a wonderful treasure!
"Instant antique" -- that must be an oxymoron--two words that don't belong together. But this looked like an antique the instant you finished the last stitch, Kathie. It's lovely.
Toiles are at the top of my list of favorite fabrics, and this red one is stunning. Gorgeous job all around. Good girl! Keeping it for yourself!
Kathie, I'm loving this quilt too. I've used the bird toile as a border on another quilt, although it was the darker version. I love this version in red and white (or is it cream). I'd better go on line and find some quick, before it's all gone.
That turned out just beautiful!! Unfortunately, I won't be getting any of those fabrics, am on a non-buying spree as I promised hubby. He is hoping to see a dent in my stash; but I will have to do lots of quilting to make it obvious lol.
It is beautiful and the toile is wonderful! Glad you are keeping it for yourself. Enjoy sleeping under it.
It is stunning--and yes, it looks vintage!
I am glad to hear that you are keeping this one for yourself. Good for you!!
It's absolutely beautiful! I love it! :0)
OH! I think it is just wonderful! So glad you are keeping it!
beautiful!...you are so right ...the fabric is amazing
I love any fabrics usually with birds, but this happens to be one of my favorites...i have used it in the tan n at least three quilts. I am now getting ready to use the red and cream in a quilt project. Red/white is always a winning color combo.
This quilt is probably one of my most favorite quilts I've ever seen!
This beautiful quilt has the aura of love and accomplishment - may it comfort you forever, Kathie.
Yep, it's a keeper! Great finish, keep warm.
Stunning! Simply stunning! And yes it looks like a perfect antique quilt already! Great job!
Love this quilt...I agree, that fabric is wonderful!
Kathie, it's stunning. So glad you're keeping it for yourself. And yes, I agree with you, it already looks like it lived in another "time".
It's a beautiful quilt ... and yes, it does have an antique feel. How will you quilt it?
Beautiful quilt. The simple setting is perfect for that fantastic toile. Yes, it does look old.
it is so easy to see why it's your favorite--What's not to love!! It is a true keeper, very antique style, and RED!! YuMmY ~
:-}pokey
Only one word describes it...
G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!!
It is definitely a "keeper" - just beautiful!
Every Stitch
It truly is gorgeous. Great job.
So beautifull.
It's so gorgeous!
It's fabulous Kathie!
Red and toile... no it would be a keeper here too! Love it!
Not only is this gorgeous - it's huge!! Fabulous.
It's beautiful - I love everything about it - and red is my favorite color. Are you sure you didn't make it for me? Haha - glad you are keeping this one for yourself!
It's gorgeous, and I'm so glad that you are keeping it for yourself. I love 9-patch quilts and your fabrics are to die for.
GORGEOUS! Congratulations!
It's spectacular ~ and gorgeous. (And done!)
I love the same-fabric binding on this one. I wouldn't have thought of that but it's perfection!
More proof that you're brilliant. :)
Lovely. The color, the pattern, the divine fabric selection.
Bravo!
This is just beautiful, Kathie! (I hope you show us a picture that shows the quilting. Please???) If I'd made this quilt, I'd keep it, too!
It`s just FABULOUS!!
It's beautiful Kathie! So pleased to hear you're keeping it for yourself -enjoy!!
WOW - love your quilt! Timeless beauty.

Such a simple pattern but so beautiful in that fabric. I think it might be my favorite too! I just can't get enough red & white!
