Jellybeans quilt by Go-Go and the tour

Kim of My Go-Go Life created this quilt as the last participant in Thomas Knauer’s Jellybean-a-thon Blog Tour. Here are his current jellybeans, with more coming later this year.

Why a jellybean? Thomas explains on his blog he took the ‘eggs’ from his Pear Tree fabric collection for Andover, and scaled them down in size to jellybeans, then gave them some unexpected color combinations. He said,

I kind of think of the colors as similar to Kaffe after a bit of electric kool-aid.

Funny!
