    I like the dark blue checks.
    Love the red setting triangles.
    Actually love the entire quilt.
    Glad you stuck with it.

    I love the way your quilt is shaping up. I have some old shirts and you are providing me with the needed inspiration to get going on it. It is looking fabulous.

    GREAT JOB on the piecing!!
    I agree with the above sentiments.

    I just love this quilt. I vote for the darker blue border and keep the barn red where it is. I think what makes it so nice is that each square has so much thought into the color combinations - each one is fun to look at!
