As the age old saying goes ‘Roses are Red, Violets are blue ‘ Well this isn’t the truth any more! While the most renowned roses are red, they also come in Yellow, White, Peach, Pink, Lavender and, thanks to modern science, Blue!

But if you are having a look at making a rose quilt, why let the laws of nature apply to your pattern? Your pattern can have roses of any color that you select. But what color is the right colour to pick? Well, if you are making it for yourself, you’ll want to select your own colour. However, if you are making it for someone else, different colours can have different meanings.

To make the decision simpler, I’ve made a guide to help by defining the difference between the rose colours. So without further ado, the meaning behind rose colours:

Red, this is the traditional and most recognised rose colour. Red roses symbolize true love, passion, respect and bravery. Although it generally infers ‘I love you ‘ it may also mean determination and determination.

Yellow, this is the colour of joy and gladness. It’s also the color of closeness and freedom. Yellow roses are good for welcome home or ‘missing you ‘ presents or just as a gift for a real friend.

Pink is the colour of gratitude, sympathy and admiration. This is great for a birthday occasion or as a get well soon present, and let me tell you, the last rose quilt I gave as a get well shortly gift, went down a treat!

Orange is for Confidence, Desire, Curiosity and Passion. Orange roses are ideally suited to an achievement present, such as a gift for a graduation or individual success.

Lavender is the symbol for enchantment, bewitchment, fantasy and lust. This is superb for a ‘love at first impression ‘ or ‘potential courting ‘ present.

White Like the bridal dress, White symbolizes Pureness, Sincerity, Innocence and Reverence. This is when you need to give a present for ‘pure love ‘.

Don’t see the color noted above? This may be a great thing. It means there is not any specific meaning attached to your rose colour so there is no possibility of your rose quilt being misinterpreted.

Now with the rose colours clearly defined, you can make your next rose quilt with confidence!
