Today is the last day of the Modern Rainbow blog tour. I hope you found something to inspire you along the way. I know blog tours can get a bit saturated, but I really enjoy seeing person’s creative take on the same patterns and ideas.
I’ve got one more book to giveaway, hard copy if the winner is in the US or electronic copy if the winner is abroad. To enter leave a comment on this post; I’d love if you would tell me what you are planning to sew next? I’ll pick a winner this Sunday!
Thank you for tuning in!
A big big BIG thank you to all of my lovely peeps who help me along the way:
HELLO, a baby charity quilt is next !
Thanks for your Blog+the Rainbow Tour !

I need to finish quilting a baby quilt & start quilting my daughters rainbow quilt…if I win I will have to make a couple more, she wants to have a rainbow birthday party this year!
I've got a stack of blocks I finished yesterday in both of Rashida Coleman-Hale's Cotton+Steel lines (and some Kona Ash) so I'll be squaring and laying out my top. If I'm really lucky I may even have enough time to piece it together!
As a new quilter, I have loved seeing how the real quilters use color and the projects and quilts. Inspiration gained.
Honestly, what I'm going to sew next is a little boring… I have to do a ton of repairs and hems on a stack that has been steadily building. After that, I might make a new summer tote! 🙂
I would love to make my Super Tote!
I'm planning a cloud pieced quilt. After following this blog tour, I just might add a rainbow in the sky…
Thanks for putting together this blog hop, I enjoyed seeing all the bloggers' projects! And the book looks great! I just made a test block for a star quilt I saw in a magazine and I think it will be my next new project. Of course, I also have some things underway that I am going to work on as well.
I have allowed myself to become distracted lately with free motion applique, so must get back to my husband's drunkard's path sofa quilt before our wedding anniversary. It's dark blue, grey, and white. I'll be looking to your book for some color after that.
I'm going to finish a paper pieced star quilt that I am very excited about.
I really enjoyed following along this blog tour. Your book looks amazing. Thanks for the chance to win!
I've so loved following this blog, and I'm a person that tried to never "color outside of the lines", if you know what I mean. So to see the other bloggers takes on some of the projects in your book was inspiring to me to try to come up with my own creative spin on one of the projects. Although I don't know how I could come up with anything better than you have for that FLAME quilt – I am just IN LOVE with it! I do love Giucy Giuce's take, and looks like the perfect table runner to me! As far as my next project, I need to finish hemming four layers (countem' FOUR) of satin and chiffon up about 6 inches on my granddaughters prom dress! I'd love to do anything, including EPP, other than that! LOL! Except I love her dearly, and of course she looks fabulous in the dress.
Thanks!
I'm doing a big purge (by attempting to sew as much as I can!). Right now I have a skirt all cut up and ready to go!
This has been a great blog tour. I loved seeing the different projects made by your bloggers and meeting new people.
I'm working out a way to do a small wallhanging of zentangle type flower. In my mine it should work….in fabric, we'll see.
My next project is a lone star quilt; I have a few things to finish up first, though.
i am finishing a hazel hedgehog cushion and a few smaller runners. The book looks great. Thanks for the chance to win
My next thing to sew is my mini for the Aussie Tula Pink Swap. The ship date is coming up soon!
I am about to start sewing the polly top by hand london x
I want to make a string quilt.
my next sewing project will be a new dress!
I've been collecting rainbow inspiration for a while to spark my next quilt. Probably a crib size. The tour has been great!
I will be finishing a mini quilt that I have started. It is in batiks, with a neutral for contrast,
I have really enjoyed the blog tour and the sneak peek of the projects in the book!
I would love to make a make quilt next .
Thanks!

I'm actually sewing two rainbow quilts. One for a gift and the other a challenge with friends
This has been such a satisfying blog-hop. I've met a few new quilters and really enjoyed seeing all these glorious rainbow quilts along the way. I am making improv blocks, rainbow style, in my quest to reduce my overflowing scrap bins. If I get enough, into a quilt they go… then with leftovers (or if I run out of scraps – haha!) placemats and throw pillows. Thanks for everything!

I am working on a quilt for my son!
I think I am going to do a summer tote/library bag or a new summer dress/skirt for my little girl. Not sure just yet…

My mother in law just brought over some vintage fabrics. I am not sure what I want to do with them yet!
The book looks wonderful – congratulations!! I'm finishing up some baby gifts but then I plan to make a quilt for my little sister – in a rainbow palette – seeing all the photos from your book has inspired me!
I love the rainbow projects in this book. My next project is a quilt for my daughter's wedding.
I love, love, love your book!! My next project will be a quilt for my daughter's bed.
My next project is going to be a table topper for the table on the deck.
This has been such a fun blog hop. What's more lovely than rainbows?
My next project is to make a small tote bag for a great friend's grand daughter. I will embroider her name on it and add a pocket on the inside for a library card or a sweet note. I hoping it will be used for library trips to fill up on books!
I won't be officially starting anything new until I finish my longer than normal list of WIPs. But when I sit down at my machine tomorrow I will be sewing the sashing on my granny square project.
I've been experimenting with the quick curve ruler from sew kind of wonderful. My next project is to use the curved pieces from this ruler in a modern quilt of my own design.
I've loved following along with your blog hop. I've gotten so many ideas. A great idea for a book. I'm currently working on a quilt using a jelly roll. Now that I'm finishing it, I can imagine it using your colorful ideas when I make it again.
Learning to sew a zipper into a pillowcase is next for me 🙂 your book looks so great!
I have a rainbow quilt that I am just about to start quilting. This blog hop has been great inspiration! Thanks for sharing the giveaway!
I'm working on a rainbow mini quilt right now, and next up is a quilted purse.
This is the year I am challenging myself to make a quilt for each of my 10 neices/nephews for their birthdays. The next birthday is at the end of May & her quilt still needs to be quilted. I better get working!
I'm planning to sew napkins and a fabric book for my grandson!

I'm working on an original art quilt with circles made from pieces of another quilt. Not sure how it will finish, just in the design stage. Just finished two baby quilts.
I'm happily going to be working on a baby quilt for my dear friend's first grandchild 🙂

Congratulation on your wonderful book! The Modern Rainbow tour has been wonderful. I luv, luv, luv all the creative rainbows in your book. I would be thrilled to win a copy and learn some of your techniques. Thank you for the giveaway opportunity.
Great book, I love the color. I must finish the binding on my current quilt then I have to do some charity lap quilts. Have any fresh patterns, ideas? I'm sort of bored with the usual.
What a great book! I have loved every quilt I've seen pictured – and since my b-bay is tomorrow I have been dropping hints like crazy to my family. Fingers crossed! Congrats to you on a job well done. Thank you. kathleendotlutzatcomcastdotnet

My next project will be a baby quilt in a rainbow of pastels.
I've got two table runners coming up next, then 7 baby quilts.
Right now I am not sewing anything new but am trying to make a dent in my collection of quilt tops. Finished 5, moving onto number 6!
I'm trying to finish a few quilts before I start anything new. I have at least three quilt tops finished that I can think of off the top of my head.
I have a baby quilt in the works for my nephew's new little girl.
My next project will be my next project will be a triangle table runner. I haven't tried them yet and have a new ruler to try out. Notwendy gmail
I just checked your book out of the library this evening and I love it! So inspiring! My next seeing project is a twin size quilt for my daughter's room. I always have multiple projects going, though. 🙂
I'm not sure what I will make next- Lots of inspiration here though!
Next I'm making a black and white houndstooth quilt for a friend
I'm trying to finish up a Sew Together Bag that I started yesterday.
I'm sewing a Rainbow Puff quilt (it was a special request). I'd love to make a quilt for my hubs, but he has to first decide what he wants. 🙂
