This quilt is my entry in the annual Pantone® Color of the Year challenge, sponsored by No Hats in the House and Bryan House Quilts. The color for 2018 is Ultra Violet, a vibrant exciing shade of purple. 'Such a regal color choice. Please continue reading.
This quilt will always remind me of one not-so-good thing though. While quilting, I accidentally sewed my finger! Ouch is correct! Lesson learned: always free-motion quilt carefully and slowly. All fabrics in this quilt are 100% cottons. Please be sure to stop by the link party to see all of the ultra violet themed quilts and other crafts. Guess what- you can also

Love your modern quilt. That shade of purple is fantastic.
Thank you Billie. I am not usually too fond of purple, but this quilt is now a favorite for sure. 'Plan on making another one by this same pattern, maybe in kelly green and white.
I do hope your finger is healing. Lovely quilt and what a wonderful color combination you have used for the Violet challenge. Creative Quilting Bliss...<3
Danice, I LOVE this quilt! Any shade of purple is my favorite color! LOL Love your modern, clean design and all the coordinating fabrics. Please take care of that ouchy finger. That is no fun.
Thanks Sherry. As soon as I saw that pattern, I knew I had to make one. This challenge was the perfect time.
Thanks Brenda. The finger is finally almost well. What a lesson learned. While purple is not one of my favorites, this quilt has become one of my favorites.
This is really lovely! I like how you used the teal with the ultra violet.
Thank you Debbie. I was afraid that the teal might be too low volume, but it seems to have worked well after all.
I love this pattern and the colors you chose, beautiful!
Thank you Cheryl. It was good to try a new quilting design as well.
The combination of violet and turquoise looks great! I hope your finger is healing!
