Your Next Rose Quilt: The Rose Colours and What They Represent.

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

But if you’re taking 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 choose. But what color is the right colour to choose? Well, if you’re making it for yourself, you’ll want to select your own color. Nevertheless, if you’re making it for some other person, different colours can have different meanings.

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

Red, this is the normal and most recognised rose color. Red roses symbolize true love, passion, respect and courage. Even though it usually infers ‘I love you ‘ it can also mean determination and determination.

Yellow, this is the color of joy and gladness. It is also the color of closeness and liberty. Yellow roses are very good for welcome home or ‘missing you ‘ presents or just as a gift for a true friend.

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

Orange is for Confidence, Desire, Curiosity and Enthusiasm. Orange roses are perfectly fitted to an achievement present, for example a gift for a graduation or personal success.

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

White Like the bridal outfit, White symbolises Pureness, Sincerity, Innocence and Admiration. This is when you wish to give a present for ‘pure love ‘.

Don’t see the colour listed above? This may be a great thing. It implies there’s no specific meaning attached to your rose colour so there isn’t any possibility of your rose quilt being misinterpreted.

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