Sharony, When I scrolled down to the picture I actually said Wow!! Out loud!! To myself!! I love the explosion of colors but it actually has a design plan to it also. I am really awed by this quilt. Deserving recipient too. My mental health therapy group makes quilts for long term foster care children. We put their names on the quilts and give them something to carry the quilt around in also. We never meet the kids of course but we hear the quilts are well received by the children. This is great therapy.
