    Default My 12 Blues Quilt

    I finally finished a quilt that I have been working on for quite a while. I want to thank so many people on this board that gave me advice on this. It's the biggest quilt I've made--full size. It's my own design (also made the pillow cases)--with some advice from y'all. I used 12 different shades of blue in the quilt—I call it "Rhapsody in 12 Blues." It wasn't easy finding all the blues, but I eventually did.
    Thanks for looking!

    Nicely done. I love the corner treatment. Finding 12 shades that flow that nicely must have been hard to find. Good for you!!!!

    It is striking, just beautiful. I love how you did the corners in the border.
