    Default Here's another Trip Around the World!
    This pattern seems to be very popular right now. I guess the reason is that they are simple to make, but look as if they took a lot of work. I know that's the reason I decided to try it. This top took less than ten days. I used Bonnie Hunter's free directions from her Quiltville website.

    This one is for someone at work who is retiring soon. I took some advice I read on this Board and kept track of what colors she wore. She likes greens and her purse and nails are often orange, so that's the colors I used.

    See what you think.

    When you get tired of quilting, you can be a private investigator! Very clever way to discern her favorite colors.
