    Dina, I am there with you. Love purple and have so many shades. Your quilt is beautiful. Is the boarder white or very light lilac?

    It's white. Turns out really light lilac is too hard to find....but I tried!

    Purple is such a pretty color! In fact it is my favorite color as well. I love your chose of color and think you quilt is beautiful!!!! In most of my quilts for myself I have put in some purple. I consider it my signature color in my quilts. Keep enjoying doing purple quilts. I enjoy seeing quilts made with purple fabric.

    It's lovely! I think you have scientifically proven that you "can't go wrong with purple!" Laura

    that is BEAUTIFUL! I did not used to like purple very much, but now I find I am leaning more and more toward it... perhaps I need to join the "Red Hat Society."

    Do you have a color that you just HAVE to use?

    Oh, here is the top. I just finished it....and I REALLY like it. Can't go wrong with purple.

    Beautiful quilt, would like to see it in Green, but the purple is stunning.
