Welcome to Creatin' in the Sticks
and
my day - the final day for the Show Your Stripes Blog Hop.
To all that participated or commented -
Thank you so much!
I enjoy hosting blog hop events so much.
My head is swimming with all kinds of ideas
and I can't wait to get to stitching.
But first, it's my day to show my
"Paused Stripes" Quilt.
I'm working on using up the fabric in my stash this year.
This quilt was super fun to make and used up quite a few strips and little bits too.
My design was inspired by Jen Kingwell's Gypsy Quilt.
I had so much fun making 6" blocks and randomly placing them in my "stripes".
The quilting is wavy stripes and stars.
I love a color wheel-inspired quilt and made this 64" x 72" quilt an explosion of the rainbow.
I can't wait for winter to be over and the color to return outside.
We are celebrating stripes with a blog hop
and
I've invited my blogging friends to
stitch something up with stripes in mind.

Amazing quilt!
Your quilt is wonderful and I love the red, white, and blue runner. Thanks for the fun with stripes.
This quilt is so fun, and a great idea. My head is full of new ideas after this week. Thank you so much for hosting this fun blog hop. I've loved it so much.
What a fun combination for such a colorful quilt. Thank you for hosting another fun hop. So many fabulous play with stripes!
I love your quilt! I may have to make one.
Carla, your quilt is absolutely stunning! And a big thanks for bringing us another really fun hop. It's so inspiring to see what everyone has created.
Now that is a fabulous quilt! So much fun! Love how the colors change across the quilt.
LOVE the bright stripes. Nice finish.
Love your shop hops and the people who participle. Your quilt is beautiful, loved the red, white, and blue table runner, and the cute wool mug rugs.
The quilt is eye catching and is named well! Thanks for sharing. Your idea will be a good one for making Comfort Quilts which, in the group to which I belong, are about 40 to 44 inches square and given to the nearby Ronald McDonald House, nursing homes, a hospice and a local pediatric practice. Thank you for coordinating this terrific blog hop.

Another awesome quilt, Carla. 'Love it so much. Thank you for hosting another fun hop, with so many creative and beautiful projects.
Love the quilt you made and the way you "played" with the blocks!!
I enjoy following your hops as they are full of inspiration. Your stripe quilt is beautiful!
That is gorgeous! I love it!
Wow wow wow!!! I almost have no words for that beautiful piece of eye candy. What a fabulous way to stash bust. Thank you again for being the hostess with the mostess!
This is just a wonderful quilt! I love how the blocks are in between the stripes. Plus, so colorful!
I definitely saw the Gypsy Quilt inspiration. This is gorgeous, and looks a lot easier than the Gypsy quilt. :) Well done. Applause!
What a great quilt, Carla!!! I have always admired the Gypsy quilt, but I know I wouldn’t get very far with it before interest in something new and easier would come along. But your version is quite doable and inspiring! The name is perfect. A fabulous take on your striped theme. Thank you hosting and organizing this wonderful and successful blog hop. I had fun. I hope to join in on more.
Your quilt is so amazing! Everything you do is top of the line.
Love your stripes quilt! Fun to work with smaller sized blocks & this resulted in a very eye catching project. Thanks for sharing your inspiration & creativity.
Oh my gosh, I love this! Rainbow colors and stripes make a gorgeous combination. You always are amazing! Thank you for hosting this hop and as usual, inspiring me with what you do.
What a fun quilt. Love the way you have incorporated the stripes and blocks together. Thank you for organising such a fun blog hop once again.
What fun! Stripes, rainbows, and lovely blocks make a great design. Thank you for the blog hop and for sharing yoru creation!
How fun is this quilt? You nailed both the stripes and paused theme - well done!
That's a truly stunning quilt, and so fun too! Thank you for sharing, for blogging, for helping to create this community and for the inspiration.
You did a fabulous job on this quilt!
I love your quilt!!! SEW pretty! And, of course perfect for this blog hop!
That is absolutely gorgeous!
I love the this quilt. I recently purchased Gypsy Wife. i wish I had the imagination that I see in a lot of the blogs I browse. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the blog hop.
Fabulous! Absolutely wonderful! Rainbow extraordinaire!
This has been a great hop. Great ideas and hints/tips. Thank you for hosting it.
Gorgeous quilt and excellent use of stripes! Thanks so much for your great ideas for blog hops! They are my favorites!
Your quilt is so bright, fun and colorful--just my style. It's been a great blog hop, thank you for hosting. And thank you for the chance at a giveaway.
Thanks for another fabulous Blog Hop, Carla. Your project turned out great!!
Wow, wow, wow! I LOVE this quilt! The colors and the blocks set "randomly" in the stripes. The first thing of thought of was Jen Kingwell's pattern (that I had to buy about a year ago). Your scattering of the blocks makes the pattern seem more doable. Thanks for this hop, Carla. Thursday was another great day of sharing!
So amazing!
Beautiful quilt! All the projects are great.
This would be a wonderful quilt if it was just the collection of colorful stripes but the additon of the wonderful blocks is perfection.
Carla, that's an absolutely amazing quilt. Coming up with such a fabulous design was grand and it makes it especially nice because you used from your scrap pile. I am going to check out Jen's quilt. Thank you for another fun hop. I look forward to seeing what everyone decides to do and this hop sure didn't disappoint.
Love your bright and cheerful quilt. I would love to make one like it!

Fabulous "Paused Stripes" quilt. I love the Gypsy Wife type and other scrappy collective quilts. Thanks for inspiring and sharing.
This is a very cool quilt!!! I love how the stripes pause for a cool block!! Nice job!!
I have enjoyed the striped projects this week and your colorful rainbow quilt.
This is so pretty!!!! Love it, and perfect for stripes! Wow!
This is awesome! It reminds me of Jen Kingwell and her work, but it is so much more modern, fun and bright.
Woohoo! Big winner! Thank you, Carla!
