It already looks really cool!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! Color Wheel LOVE! This will be another stunner from the studio for sure. I'd love to come visit your fabric stash.
Woah. WOAH! This is incredible! So fresh and exciting! Can't wait to see your progress.
ooohhhh - that's going to be amazing! This one wheel is great, I can't wait to see several together!
Just beautiful!! Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
Can't wait to see your adaptation!
I've been blogging about a colour wheel quilt for ages, but haven't got enough fabrics! I'm green with envy that you've started one :)
Oh soooo pretty! Those strips look so good, and a big quilt with those will be stunning.
Oh my goodness it's gorgeous!
Gotta love this one!! The color is just spectacular!! Love, love, love it!!
Wow, its lovely. And your blog is great, so full of inspiration. I just wandered over from jaybird's. And I get to KC several times a year since our kids are there, maybe we'll bump into each other in quilt shop along the way!
what the...girl you crazy! this is the best. but i'm praying you don't inspire me to finally make one of these amazing quilts. i don't think my stash can stand to be drug out THIS completely.
Mmhhmnyummy....sooo beautiful!!
STUNNING. Did you buy a kit of fabric, or painstakingly choose the myriad of colors? I can't wait to see the full quilt top.
I just love color wheels. I will be looking forward to seeing this one progress!
Your color wheel is OUTSTANDING!!! I am so glad I found your blog, I think I will make a cup of tea and stay a while to absorb some inspiration!!!
Thank you for sharing.

wow, AWESOME!!!!
lovely, lovely, lovely colours! (I spelled it the Canadian way because I thought you might appreciate it). you really have all those in your stash?! I've made 20 wedges in a dresden, but 52 is wow!
multiple wheels? Oh wow Jacquie!!!
Beautiful and inspiring!!
And I just know I'm going to LOVE it! :) Can't wait to see it come together!
Wow! Can't wait to see that one finished!
Wowee! That's all I can say.
i just pulled this book out to make this quilt... crazy timing!
Love your beginning! I bet you're going to "wow" us at the end!
oh geez. i love it. that pattern is on my lists of "someday to dos" i love that you're modifying it, such a great color project :]
Heaven!
Fabric swoon. Love the color wheel.
sew pretty, jacquie!!
Very pretty. I love all that color too. Makes me happy. I am currently working on my Schnibbles quilt for the month and I am doing a quilt that the colors gradate across the quilt in the colors of the rainbow. I have been surprised at how much tweaking I needed to do to get the flow of the color without having one stick out to much. It was time consuming but so fun.
I love to read your blog, your are amazing, and really have a great eye for color, those are stunning, how long have you been collecting these fabrics for this project?
whoever thought a colorwheel could look so happy
Yes, glorious color!
Wow, that's neat!
Love your color wheel. I'll look forward to the finished product!
Oh my goodness - how wonderful. Will you be changing up the 'color flow' in the different circles that will make up the quilt or will they be identical to each other? Either way - I can't wait to see this one when it's finished:) AWESOME!
Nothing quite like BIG COLOUR! I bet the layout took a while - it's fab.
How lovely! And how summery! Can't wait to see the end result!
it's gorgeous!
Wow ! Beautiful!
An artist's delight!
And your little celebration quilt is way cool!
Wow! in a word? FABULOUS!!!!!
beautiful!! I want to make one now!
I love color wheel quilts! Can't wait to see more of it!
That is going to be gorgeous!!
I love it already!
Now that is some great eye candy!
I was lost for a second there when you said selvage to selvage cuts. Love the idea of multiple circles.
Oh goodness that's gorgeous!!! The multiple wheels will look so amazing!
Gorgeous. The best color wheels I've ever seen!
That is the most incredible color wheel jacquie!!! I think I need one!!! :)
Good luck with your quilt!

I love the color wheel, and I LOVE your colors! Can't wait to see more pictures of this quilt!
Lookin' good!
Isn't that book great? It's one of the many that I've had checked out from the library so many times I might as well buy myself a copy.
Can't wait to see it!
Oh so beautiful! I just wish I could find some of your FMF fabric (I think it is called seeds or something like that). Obsessed. Really hard to find. Makes me more obsessed.
And it looks perfect in your array of colors!
b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l ...... :)

Wow-Wee! Is that cool!!!
I have had that pattern cut out forever because I LOVE it in the book (I too have it) but I have been scared of sewing it due to all the curved sewing......yours is amazing.
It looks scrumptious! Can't wait to see it finished.
I love this quilt. I made mine a while ago and I am still in love with it. It is my favourite quilt yet. I can't wait to see how you adapt it!
Beautiful, I'm so drawn to colorful fabric prints!
I absolutely love each and every fabric...this is going to be amazing (as your quilts always are)!
Beautiful! I've got colour wheels on the mind because I just started pulling out fabrics for my own quilt!
Can't wait to see how it looks with multiple wheels!
YOU are A M A Z I N G!!! ;)

Yes! Sometimes you have to just completely indulge, right?? This is going to be amazing!

Oh My - you are freakily talented .. you do know that don't you ...

All that colour is great. I love bright cheery quilts! I am new to quilting and really enjoy peeking in at your blog! www.quispamsisquilter.blogspot.com

I LOVE this color wheel. I have that book, and I keep thinking about trying this, but that is as far as I have made it so far-thinking. Can't wait to see how yours progresses!
