Thank you all for your lovely comments. You really know how to give someone a swollen head. LOL!
As a couple ladies commented, I believe this is called Jewel Box. She said it kept growing and growing and she just wanted it finished. When I sent her a picture of it she said she couldn't wait to bind it and get it on her bed. Her husband said she better not give this one away. LOL!
I have a Gammill Opt. + with IQ. I used 4 oz. polyester batting. I love the definition it gives to the quilting. I think with something like warm and white it just wouldn't have had that "pow" factor. I also think "less is more" when it comes to the amount of quilting.

The black spot is on my camera lens, not her fabrics.
There is 90 of those feathered squares in addition to the half feathers in the outer edges.
