This quilt gave me problems from the start. I cut the strips for a traditional rail fence, with 3 in finished "rails". I forgot to add the seam allowance to the strips. I did realize my mistake before I started sewing. So I cut the dark green strips to go with the light green. Not thinking about anything but getting it done, I didn't realize the "design" change till the top was finished. The blocks float!!! I really like the way it turned out. So do my DD's, and they don't really care for pink. They said it looks like a watermellon. You're seeing it with the binding clips still on because I'm leaving for Knoxville tomorrow. I won't have access to a computer while I'm gone. It's for my neice who's in the hospital. The Quilt Police have already told me not to give it to her in the hospital!! "It'll be stolen". So, I'll make her another quilt!!!!
I ran short on thread, and no one around here had more of the varigated green, so I used dark green on the back. It looks black next to the black and white back! Another "Happy Accident".
