Your quilt is stunning. I really like the multitude of blue. They just sparkle with the white or off-white.
Another feature that I am impressed with is the use of different colors of thread quilted into the backing. It just adds a lovely accent.

Thanks for the heads up on Dream Cotton. Regardless, it is gorgeous!!!

Your quilt is beautiful! Sorry you had a bad experience with Quilters Dream cotton. I love their products. I have a feeling you used their thinnest one, called Request. I used that and, while it is suppose to be great for hand quilting, I also felt it was too thin. Now I only use their Select which has a nice loft. I recently got their wool. Have not tried it yet but read rave reviews here about it. BTW, I think the shadowing on the back adds to the quilt.

I love Quilter's Dream. You must have used the Request. It is thin and I use it for wall hangings. The Select is a higher loft and I use it for quilts.

There are so many Quilter's Dream types of batting and some are really just for hand quilting. You did a beautiful job making and quilting this quilt.
