If you would like to make me a special 50th birthday block the details can be found here.
For something totally unrelated, this afternoon while I was cleaning my quilt room, I started pulling together my red and white stash for an upcoming guild challenge. I am sure I have more but I will have to start looking out for some more prints. There is something so joyful about reds and whites. What is your favourite white and colour combination?

I am a sucker for the red and white. (I got married in red – it's my fave colour!) I was looking at my stash while moving it all and I have surprisingly little red and white. I need to rectify that. I loved those apples that you found in Sydney. Can't wait to see what you make!

without a doubt my favourite "and white" colour is a strong egg yolk yellow!

what a great way to celebrate your 50th. Lovely collection of reds personally I love green so my choice green and white

The only quilt kit I have ever bought – last Christmas and it is still untouched – is red and white. So I guess I like red and white (though I think any bright colour looks great with white. Oh and black too!).

I don't know why I haven't see the post for birthday blocks….I make & send mine today, I love how you would make your quilt, a lovely idea I will take for myself. Joyeux anniversaire XXX !

What a fun pull! And such a good example of all the important lessons in value, scale and tone. Can't wait to see what you make!
