Another UFO
I made this lap quilt and I guess it was just too dull. I got bored with the colors right away. It is full of wrinkles but I can take care of that. Its not the[ATTACH=CONFIG]350886[/ATTACH] prettiest thing in the world. But, I bet it will make someone at my church or nursing home happy.

It's a shame that the lack of contrast has dulled your enthusiasm because the construction looks really good and consistent on those curved seams. When you go to quilt it, you could either try using a heavy black thread, outlining the solid 'designs' in the ditch or perhaps an 1/8" outside of the grey solid designs.
Just something to help separate the elements.

It's subtle but pretty. The quilting may bring out the design or you could use it for the background behind an appliqué design. I'm thinking something like the Poppy Quilt (black and white background behind the big orange poppies) that was posted on QB?
