One of my favorite patterns and your choice of all those beautiful blues makes a wonderful quilt. I do need to share my story. My mother-in-law, two sisters and a sister-in-law enbarked on a plan (about 50 years ago) to make Trip Around the World quilts for all of their children and grandchildren. All the pieces had to be cut with a template by hand. They started with fabric that they all had on hand and before they were finished there was not a piece of fabric in the whole county safe from their scissors and machine. I think they made somewhere between fifty and sixty. Our family had or has 6 of them and they were treasured. The cousins loved to talk about their quilts.
