Very nice! Glad to see the use of the bright colors. This will be a wonderful gift. This piecing pattern is very similar to another posting I saw just the other day. I wanted to show it to someone else, and now I can't find it! The large squares were a snowman print, and the stripes were red, green, white. The width of the solid color strips were at a slightly differnet ratio, and they had the effect of forming "frames" around the large squares. If anybody can tell me where to find that picture, I'd appreciate it!
