I really like this as well,but I wonder if the brightness of the colors in your quilt vs. the photograph has you discouraged...personally I think it looks great. The only thing that jumps out at me is the sky and mountains. In the picture, the value of the sky is lighter than the mts and that is reversed in your quilt. It looks like the mountains are snow covered. I don't want to discourage you, but when I need advice, I want more than just compliments.
