This is a very special and beautiful quilt. I love the border, the richness of color, and the sheer variety!

This quilt is awesome -( to repeat what someone else said!)- the blocks are so interesting and colorful, yet tempered by the navy alternating blocks, it isn't tiresome to look at (like some of the "contemporary" bright quilts we see.) Just love the way this came together!

Great job, reminds me of Mexican tiles. The way you cut the outer borders of the blocks really adds a fantastic frame.

Yes! Yes! The borders on the blocks are the cat's meow. You said you fussy cut them... what line of fabric are those from?

Terrific use of the fabrics! How very bright and fun. I bet this one could take a prize if you submitted it into a show.

Gorgeous top and what a fabulous use of fussy cutting fabric to frame each block like that. It really adds to the top and makes it appear even more intricate.
