My DSIL says the colors come from my warped mind! I made a variation from a recent magazine cover. I think it was a Quick Quilts from this fall or winter. The cover showed white strips on the outsides and muted blues and reds for the middle strips. Inside the magazine, they showed the same quilt made with white and brighter colors. I was going to mix all of my colors together, but family and friends talked me into sorting the strips into two sets. I like the quilt with the yellow better, but my mom likes the one with the purples better. They are both loud and obnoxious, but that fits my family! These are my second and third quilts that I've completely finished. My DSIL let me use her brand spanking new Janome for all of it! (I've since gotten one of my own.)
