Mark has seen it all along--too hard to keep it a secret. :wink: Actually, he chose the pattern from three I showed him--and when I had 12 star blocks left I had him show me what fabrics he liked the most--and what colors he wanted the last ones. So-he's had a say in it. :D
After working hard to keep all flowery fabrics out of the quilt top--I don't know what I was thinking when I chose the back fabric. Well--actually, the choices were a greenish or the maroonish...so I went toward a CW color (red). But he likes it--even with the pinkish strip in it. When I showed him the two choices I had and asked which he would have picked, he said he didn't know... so that's good, yes? and Kennedy's dad said he really liked it too... so it'll be okay. :wink:
Here's my man of 24 years.... :D (we really need a smile with hearts)
