First of all, if anyone of you knew about Erika Linder and didn't tell me, you are fired. Just go check her out on Tumblr. Here, have a little incentive.

I'm at work right now, so no tumblr for me :(

A Pulsar quilt sounds interesting.
I'm looking for a design for a wedding quilt wall hanging right now. Any suggestions?
I'm tempted by this but it's quite a bit of work with the small squares and - as awful as it sounds - I'm not sure if I want to invest so much work into a present for people which are only aquaintances (and not close friends).

Check out the tumblr stuff later. It will still be there.

I was wondering what sort of quilty things you were up to. Pinwheels are very easy, actually. I'm happy to brainstorm quick quilt ideas. You know split rail fence?

Japp, I know. For a quick quilt rail fences are great. It should be a wedding wall hanging and I thought it would be great if I had something that symbolizes both parties and that they're intertwined now (maybe two different colors). But (double) wedding rings are too complicated (because circles!). I'm not sure how I could do this with rail fences. Plus it wouldn't look too spectacular as a wallhanging, wouldn't it?

What about something like Double Irish Chain? It looks fussy, but I think you could strip piece it pretty quick!

Hm... that could work. Two colors and maybe a quilted heart in the middle or some embroidery.
I need to draw it to see it first before I decide. Thanks for the suggestion:)

Yeah, two colors! I like the idea of a quilted heart or embroidery in the middle. You could even have a nice big square in the middle for that. Have fun!
