But since we have been away for a couple of weeks, I've had withdrawal symptoms for making art. The day before yesterday I decided to see what I could do quickly with the theme. I wanted to use scraps of fabrics and started pulling them out. I had lots of yellow, but not much purple (not surprising). I also noticed that most of the commercial prints I have tend to be with small scale motifs. I don't get many fabrics with large prints. Anyway, this piece is not twelve by twelve inches. I seem to have trouble with that. But it does have yellow and purple. I still need to finish the edges. And that dark strip is a deep purple.

Wow! This is wonderful -- I love the abstract simplicity of it, the boldness of color and your use of the printed fabrics -- a wonderful abstract landscape. Thanks for playing along with us!
Lisa, I think the back is as nice as the front. Beautiful quilt.
