    I just finished making a baby quilt for my daughter's friend from school. A very special pregnancy long worked for and hard gained. The parents picked the colors, I did the rest. Soft calm colors is not my go to for babies. LOL

    I also finished, just today, a comfort quilt for an 8th grade girl with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. She is a friend of my granddaughter. I normally don't use black in comfort quilts, but this one really called out for it and both my daughter and granddaughter wanted me to use it, so I did. They both said this Jewel Box quilt is definitely her!

    Last one is my favorite, black was the only color to set off those beautiful colors.

    As the first one showed up, I thought what soft colors. Both are lovely.

    Well done x 2! I know what you mean about someone else's colors not being your cup of tea!
