Hello, happy new year to you all!

New year is such a perfect time to start a new quilt, isn't it? And that's just what I did. Only you know what? I decided to make a BROWN quilt.

Now, I know people have strong feelings about this color (I was actually very surprised by how much positive response I got to a picture of this quilt top on IG). I personally did not think of myself as a "brown liker", but now I'm realizing it really depends on the shade of brown for me ...

...as well as colors used with brown. I still can't see myself combining brown and orange in the same project and actually enjoying it, but I think this combo of different shades of brown and  white, plus a very simple layout works.

My quilt top is all finished and now it's on to making a quilt back - one of my new year's resolutions is to use up more of my stash to make quilt backs instead of taking an easy way out and buying sheets :).

Hope your new year is off to a good start too. Svetlana
