    Love the colors and the cross-hatch quilting really is neat!

    Now that is a happy quilt. You can not curl up with that and stay in a rainy day mood at all. Nice job quilting too by the way. I love it!

    I'm totally into the tie dye thing. Great quilts. Especially like the pinks/greens.

    Totally agree. Beautiful on both sides.

    Beautiful quilt. What size strips did you use? How big is each square? How big is the quilt?
