Show and tell Sutffers Two Colour Challenge Quilts revealed.

Remember I said our stuffers group had a secret I couldn't share until guild day? Well today they were revealed at the day meeting of Fraser Valley Quilter's Guild. The inspiration was from a trip that Becky took to Thailand in January and noticed that houses had some interesting paint combinations. She found out it they represented the birth day of the week of the people who lived in the homes.

She found a website that shared what your colour was depending on the day of the week you are born on. She also found a Facebook quiz which gave another colour. The second one included black and white as colours which some people do not feel are colours, but for the purpose of this challenge they were allowed.

Becky was first up, her challenge colours were orange and yellow. One children's print was allowed to be added and preemie quilt size of 36" was the size. This is her original design.



Cher made a red and pink elephant quilt.


Tricia's colours were green and white, her quilt grew and will be a donation to Cops for Cancer.


Red and blue, sorry I chopped or the makers face and forgot who did this one.


Val had purple and white, she hand painted the dragonflies onto this beauty.


Brenda made this pink and blue rail fence.


Donnamae created this red and blue quilt.


Pink and orange by a new member of the group.


Yellow and red were Susan's colours.


This was Susan's first one, but the small yellow tuck wasn't enough so she made the other one.


Nancy made this pink and blue quilt and did a lovely spiral quilt design on it.


Carmi our hostess overachiever made these two blue and green quilts.


Mary's colours were pink and green and she also did a offset spiral quilting design.


Ann Marie made this yellow and purple one.


Susan (seated in the blue) also made two green and blue quilts, she didn't like one of the greens I don't recall which one. Celeste was helping her hold them.


I think they both were great.


Another overachiever Celeste is hoping that B.C. Women's Hospital's N.I.C.U. has some quadruplets soon.


I haven't made mine yet as I didn't get the e-mail and had another commitment that I had a deadline to be done by last weekend. I will post a picture along with a couple more that I know that are promised.

Take a bow ladies. The babies at B.C. Women's Hospital are in for a colourful treat.
