Gorgeous quilt. The color combination is so relaxing.

Barb, this is beautiful. It looks like the dust ruffle is sewn to the quilt...just an optical illusion, but an idea I'd never thought about.

It's pretty.....wonderful colors.

Never seen this pattern before in such upright formation !!! SUPER !!! I, too, am interested in knowing the pattern...

Those colors are gorgeous together. What a beautiful quilt!

First of all, I want to thank all of you for your compliments on the quilt.

Sheila Elaine, no the bed skirt was made to use, probably with the Boston Commons underneath the Navajo. However, I did add a double ruffle similar to a bed skirt to a customer's lone star once. It had already been hand quilted and bound, and something I would never do again.

Rainbow, the name of the pattern is Navajo and in the book Trip around the World Quilts and in the one mentioned my Darren, Traditions with a Twist.

Darren, thanks for the additional information about Traditions with a Twist. i saw Amazon has copy of the book. I'm going to order it as I've never heard of several patterns in it. I'm going to do searches beforehand for the Zula, Zuma and Jamaica, see if I might like to make those

Oh, BTW, C & T in C&T Publishing are Tom and Carol Hensley, relatives of mine. They came to Missouri with their children several years ago for one of our family reunion. We had never met before, she brought lots of goodies from C&T Publishing as gifts for us.

Very Pretty

How fun for you to have relatives in publishing. If they need anyone to critique quilting books I'm sure they can always count on you!
