Wow the quilting is gorgeous. The whole quilt is. I love the purple & red. I wouldn't have thought about those colors together but it is great

What wonderful quilting! I think the surface of the quilt is very pretty; the disappearing patches are so much fun to make. But, that quilting is so lovely. Personally, I like to see quilting showcased and you have done it masterfully.

Quilted using sashing/border patterns around the "new block" in pale mint green with added purple and red quilting in the borders. Went together rather well. Trying to take photos in our windy weather yesterday was a challenge but got it done. Hope you like it.

I love the purple and the reds are just gorgous with the purples. worry makes grey hair. Let your heart not be troubled.

Super job on the quilt and the quilting! I would actually take turns displaying both sides of the quilt as the quilting is just so gorgeous! I am sure the quilt will be appreciated.
