Your quilt is beautiful! You really put alot of work into it.
It is subtle, but I think that was the intent of the line. Soft, engaging, draws you to it but not overly done.
I appreciate it even more because I bought this line of fabric after my DD decided how much she loved it. After it arrived, she was not nearly as excited as before beacause of how muted and the colors seemed all alike and has told me to make the quilt for myself since I like B/Y/W together. I told her after spending nearly
$200.00 for fabric for it, she was not backing out. She about dropped her jaw. She had no idea it cost that much. I will be purchasing an all darker blue to use as large sashing between large HST. I hope to have it done for her B-day next year. I may try my hand at a scalloped border.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful quilt and giving me the inspiration to work at it. Please enjoy your quilt.

I found that fatquarterpack with 33 fatquarters for less than $80 as it was on sale.
Well................and then I started to buy yardage from that line for sashing and borders. Didnt like it and bought different ones, also for the backing. As you can see I made a muslin backing at the end!?
So I have quite some fabric left over from that line and might give it another try mixing with other prints.
Thank you for your coments. With each one I start to look at my quilt differently and like it more and more :lol:
