I love the colors. She was out of line to make any kind of negative comment at all. Good teachers encourage - not discourage. Glad you finally got back to it. It's beautiful.

It may not be the 'bold' colors she wanted, but jewels come in all colors -and your quilt is beautiful. Hopefully after 10 years, you are at a point in your life where you make what you feel and disregard poor manners.

What rules. There are no rules, just pick what you think will be nice for the person who will receive it. I say, very lucky son.

I love your quilt and the colors are great. I'm so sorry you went through that with that teacher. Sometimes people don't know how to encourage the ones they are teaching unfortunately. I am so glad you are back at it. I'll be looking forward to seeing more quilts. Have you decided on a quilt for your son?? :):):)
