Escape to the Country!

Kirsten here.  I have been enjoying my spring, and I have found some lively colors to put into a quilt with country houses and trees.  The house on the upper left has a fox as a landlord, and he rents out the upstairs to a family of seven cats.  The fox house has a thatched roof.  A family of chickens live in the lower right house, which is quite roomy and has excellent views of the scenic countryside.  In the field next door is a herd of cows, who have a wonderful purple flowering tree to rest under.  

I wanted to use the solid dark-pink-punch colored fabric for the binding, but did not have enough.  I alternated it with the fox house fabric to make a more interesting, fun, binding.  Shortages spark creativity!  I like having all those flowers in the blue sky.

This is the most fun quilt I have made in a while.  I want to make another!
