    Woody, the new wave quilt is perfect for a young lady about to enter her teens.

    if you check the pattern for magic squares you could use two color a nice turoquise and maybe a nice tan so it would like sand and surf...

    I could make them by Christmas this year. I finish one and start another. Good luck on next year.

    Lots of tough decisions now! I haven't bought the fabric yet. I've mainly just figured out the colors each of them like and have been scouring the internet for ideas. I found great ones for the rest of them. She's just pretty tough to figure out. She's not a typical teenager, she acts much older. She likes vintage-y types of things. I haven't seen a ton of turquoise vintage prints so I was thinking perhaps a pattern that looked older? It's a surprise for them so I'm trying to figure it out without asking up front. Maybe I'll do some more sleuthing while I check out all these patterns!
