Its simple to fall into a habit, doing the same familiar things time after time. Its the security of knowing that you can do whatever it is and do it very well. The downside of this is that you can start getting into a routine that becomes uninteresting and you finish up wondering why it is that you are doing what you are doing.
This is something that can happen a lot with rose quilt designs, you can wind up making numerous quilts that end up looking the same and finally lose motivation to do another one. Well, now's the time to break that cycle and the simplest way to do that's by working with with a fresh design, so here's a few:
Chequered Roses Pattern
Similar to a patchwork style quilt, a checkered rose pattern is something that is not ordinarily done with roses. So why not incorporate one or two into the squares and add a bit of colour and style to your next one?
Linking Vines Pattern
This one will take a little bit of planning. Get some paper and draw out a trail for your vines to follow, making sure that they don't bunch up in one particular place. Then, when you have something you like, add a scattering of roses!
Wreath of Roses
Why should the festive season have all the fun with wreaths? A wreath of roses makes a great centrepiece for a rose quilt and has a fresh and inviting appeal that's difficult to beat!
Pick a couple of colours to make something special.
Border of Roses
You do not always have to cover every single square inch of a rose quilt with flowers. In reality you can achieve an effective and minimalist effect by adding borders of roses covering the edges of the quilt. It looks superb and truly stands out!
So there you have it, 4 great new designs to push you out of the same of rose quilt cycle!
