I think it is gorgeous. And it is so well balanced. Your lady will love it. I don't know how you work and get this kind of work done. I love it.

Very nice quilt! I think the Pink binding will tie it all together!

I think it's beautiful. Different yes but beautiful, just the same.

I like it. You can tell the work involved and the colors are great.

I think it's gorgeous!!! If your friend doesn't like/want it, you can send it to me. The fabrics are beautiful, (pink is not a favorite of mine, but I really like it in this quilt) and you did an outstanding job. Remember we all have different tastes (which helps the world go around).

You did a great job - wonderful design balance, terrific use of the oriental fabrics, great color choices! Nice stretch out of your comfort zone! Thanks for sharing.

I thing the quilt is stunning and so original! I'd put that on my bed any day! I have had that situation with my DH too. I finally realized that he likes 'classically pieced quilts where all the pieces logically follow a pattern. I like surprises in my quilts. If I make a traditional quilt top, I usually piece the backing with a 'surprise'. He likes the front, I like the back...win, win.
