As soon as I saw this quilt and knew Ricci was teaching it, I wanted to make this quilt. I love the flowers used in the sample pattern but I felt I should use fabric from my stash instead of buying new Kaffes. Even though I wanted to do that.
I did get a black stripe for the handles. I had this red dot so I decided to use it for the background. After deciding on the red dot it kind of set the tone for the rest of the quilt.
So I thought a black, red and white quilt would really be lovely. After all red is my signature color! I'm extremely excited to use all these red fabrics in this quilt and can't wait to get started. 
Now my fabrics are packed and ready to go. It's getting exciting!-nanette

That is such a gorgeous quilt...can't wait to see your results!
Beautiful fabrics can't wait to see the quilt. Have fun at the retreat!
Your quilt will be so beautiful, Nanette! Have a fun time!

What a fantastic quilt, I can see why you would want to do this one at the retreat. Is the white/red polka dot a stash item. I bought some a few years ago at my lqs and can't seem to find the same one and now have a teeny tiny bit left. Really I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of the retreat and the things that are made there.
Oh my goodness, that is a cute pattern! I'm glad you got the black stripe for the handles, that's what really makes it striking. I love your selection of fabrics!
I LOVE those black stripes! They look so stunning with the beautiful reds. I'm holding my breath until you come back from the retreat to show us all of your fascinating projects :)
Any chance you'd have a moment to check the selvage of your black and white and tell me the info; name and maker? I have that pattern, and have wanted to make that quilt for THE LONGEST time. Your B/W stripe is perfectly perfect for the basket handles!! Have a wonderful time on your Retreat! Thanks~~
Absolutely LOVE the red! This is going to gorgoeus.
You are really going to have fun at the retreat & I am super jealous!
That quilt will be fabulous in the reds!! I am so jealous of your wonderful retreat. You are going to have a blast!!
That quilt is awesome! I love how all the handles are the same and the black and white stripe are perfect. I love all the reds, great idea and your white with red polka dots will be the perfect background. I think I am going to be in love with your quilt. Red is my color too.
That is going to be spectacular!
You've got so many lovelies prepared I don't know how you will decide what to pull out first! Good thing you have two retreats :)

Nanette - I really wish you would quit putting up pictures of the projects you are going to work on while in Bryce because it makes me wish I was going and it makes me sad.... :) I want to make the purse and the basket quilt!!
