Shelly that is fantastic, the alternative block is so creatively placed, it gives a totally different look to the blocks, without detracting from their individuality - love it, of course I am very partial to bright colours too :D :D :D

Thanks Guys :P , Kris is quite creative and is always building or painting something, but everything is strong or big or loud. I think the quilt will suit him, he's a loud kinda boy :lol: . His mother bought him a drum kit :? (sigh) fortunately it didn't survive him very long :wink: . Maybe he takes after his Gamma, but I aint admitin to nufink :lol:

I really enjoy working with those kinda colours, it feels the most natural to me, I try really hard to use other types of colour groups, but I always end up slipping back towards the bold. Maybe I should just stop stuggling and accept the inevitable :lol:
