After seeing a lot more examples Bergereink, I love the way you chose to use your colors best off all!

I wanted to chose one that is unusual and a bit of a challenge. I had to go with my favorite too.i have to edit the pic into the post cause of who knows what! here goes.
I am still working on figuring out how to quilt this one. It is one of my favorite patterns.
Any quilting suggestions and ideas would be greatly accepted!
Very easy yet has a complicated appearance. It is all cut from one pieced block. The pattern is called Casa Maya. And I love it. My next one will be in poppy colors!
peace

This one got a lot of 'ooohhhs' and 'aaahhhhs' when I showed it at guild. It is definitely hard to overlook!
It's made from 2 batik jelly rolls and a navy/purple blender for sashing. Except for sashing, it's all made via strip piecing, and only uses rectangles and 4 patches. Easy to make. The difficulty was keeping the various blocks organized for sewing.

I don't know about stunning, but this is my favorite quilt to date. It took me weeks to machine piece, applique and quilt. About 1/4 the way through the quilting I noticed a big pucker on the back. I spent days ripping out the stitches to get back past that pucker. Very frustrating! But, it taught me to look at the backing on a regular basis. And it used up a lot of my scraps.
