    I love it. You did a wonderful job. Do you know where the pattern is available?

    Great solution to all those gifted strings. Love your pattern and layout of colors. Also love the butterfly on the back. Was that an orphan block that finally found a home or was it intended for this beauty. I'm glad your Mom was able to see the results of her gift. Thanks for sharing.

    The fabric in that quilt looks like you just bought it yesterday! Wow! This is a fabulous quilt! Thanks for the link (I'll see if I can get it to post at the end of this reply). That's a wonderful pattern! And I think you should call your quilt "Estes Park April Showers". I spent many a happy summer day in Estes Park as a child... your mom is lucky to have grown up there!

    A very cheerful quilt. The fabrics do look contemporary. I like the pattern. It may be used for my next scrappy.

    Nice story and a beautiful quilt. Thanks for sharing. It can just be the motivation I need to start one with pieces of fabric I was given by a few people...
