I have seen a similar pattern, but if memory serves, the pattern I saw had a thin strip on the top and bottom of the lattern. Your latterns look like one solid piece, which I really like. Can you tell me what pattern you used?

Very nice, love your colors.

Thank you all for your wonderful comments about this quilt. The pattern is a free Hoffman pattern called Shanghai Lights. I will attach the PDF here for anyone who would like it. It was relatively easy and can be used with so many different fabrics that you would like to spotlight.

It's beautiful and I too, would like to know the pattern. It almost looks like a snowball pattern with another row put between each row of snowballs. What quilting motif are you going to use? I'm very impressed. Thank you for sharing.

Not sure about a quilting motif. I placed it on my queen sized bed and it covers the top only. But I like it so much that I think I will use another border of piano keys to make it larger to use on my bed as a cover.

The Shanghai Lights Hoffman Free Pattern download didn't work for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I just clicked on download.

Did you give it enough time to download? It is a rather large file and takes a minute or two to downoad. If it doesn't work for you then you can search the internet for the name of the pattern and you should be able to find it.
