    I'm so glad this is a planned gift - the more I look at this quilt the more I don't like it!

    I LOVED the stack of fabric when I bought it/while it was sitting on my shelf - but the more I pieced this quilt the more I didn't like it.

    I guess it's okay, but I really had to force myself to finish it. If it were for me and not a wedding gift, it may have been trashed/traded/ufo'd...

    Well, I think you have done a beautiful job, despite your feelings about it. It's not a palette I use, but it is quite appealing. Now off you go and do something you really feel passionate about.

    I think it's pretty. I'm glad you finished it and I bet they will love it. I love the way you finished the edge. So pretty.

    I really like it. It has a fun, happy look. I love the lime green prints. Lime green seems to be in style right now!

    I like the pattern and I wonder if you had used a bright yellow instead of so much white if you would be happier with it. I got a good laugh as I understand why you like the fabrics. They looked familiar so I went down to my sewing room and now I know why...I have these patterns sitting there waiting for me to make something. So I guess we have good taste in material.LOL
