Wayne's Quilts

I love to make quilts. Large and small; for beds and walls. I especially like bright colors and geometrics. Please look through my showcase. Tell me what you think: you can leave a comment below a particular quilt, send an email (wsrhodes@gmail.com),and/or sign my Guestbook (on the right side as you scroll down). Some are for sale; click on "Needs A Loving Home" to see these. And if you are interested in having a quilt made for you, drop me a line and we'll see what we can work out.

DOUBLE VISION

Another wall hanging made with multi-colored fabric. The fabrics are dyed in different colors across their widths, so that when pieces are cut, they subtly change and blend in the finished piece. This piece will be donated to the United Way of Lake County for their annual fundraising auction.

Click to see other views. I couldn't decide what to call it, so I solicited suggestions from the core group of people that access my blog. Well....there were 24 entries submitted by 17 people in the "name the quilt" contest. Lots of "kaleidoscopes" and "spinning" themes. The winning name was submitted by Nancy Coolley. I think it really captures the essence of the pattern.

And....if you want the to hear the song by Foreigner,
