AnnaColor 1-5 NWWoman

I was stumped for this color challenge; was quite surprised at the choice of a purple for the Pantone color of the year. I've never been much for purple.
I had no pictures or purple goings on in my life until I came upon this magazine while cleaning up a bookshelf. In it I found an article I'd written in 2004 talking about how to decorate with quilts made from Asian-inspired fabrics. I also made the quilts in the picture. That was long ago in another life (I stopped my quilt design business after ten years, too much work, although I still enjoy making quilts as a hobby). This was a very fun story to tell :)

Yes, making quilts is too much work. I quilted for years, but now can barely look at my sewing machine without feeling some angst. Beautiful! Love the MM Daisies!
 
Your page layout echoes the magazine theme nicely. Love your comments about moving on from those days. And now you're shedding again.
 
This spread is so beautiful! And how important to have this kind of record of a phase in your life. Everything is laid out so well, the blending great. Just super.
 
I like(love) everything in this page! And counterpanes in the magazine(review) seem magnificent.The purple is not for me too my color of preference!
 
You have many talents! I love that you have this record of the magazine article and the wonderful use of the mm files under the quilt square. A lot of people seem to shy away from purple. It's not a color I'd decorate with but I have a purple (not ultraviolet!) jacket that I wear in the winter and love :)
 
Love how you've captured the spirit of your past. I'm a purple girlhave both an eggplant purple and deep lavender couch.
