Remember when that special someone gave you a single red rose?rosebudclass
Just as color is important to a quilt, colors of roses have meanings as well.

The white rose is the bridal rose and represents love stronger than death.

The red rose is the lover’s rose; it is the ultimate symbol of romantic love. A single red rose says I love you.

The yellow rose is given as a sign of friendship and has special meaning in Texas.

The pink rose is the rose of grace and elegance. The rose of sweet thoughts and gentility is a nice way to say thank you.

What would you like to say to that special someone with your rosebud quilt? Anyone would be happy to receive this single rose, so make two and keep one for yourself!

Pick your color and join me in the three-week class to learn to “appliquilt” and make this lovely rose. At 16.75″ x 33″ it is just the perfect size for your wall. (more…)
