This will probably end up being a charity quilt at some point. I have about 6 or 7 ready to gift someone.
I hear ya! I was thinking just the same thing tonight. I'm working on a "Jelly Roll Race" for a friend using a jelly roll that is so out of my comfort zone it ain't even funny. But I'm enjoying using it & actually kinda like the quilt. Some people seem to get more set in their ways as they age but for some reason, I feel like I'm expanding my horizons.

This would make a fabulous charity quilt... so cheerful... back & front!
