I love this quilt, Boston! I still can't find the "mistake."

Linda, I love yours also. Both are so colorful and cheery!

Such a beautiful quilt and I didn't even see the two fabrics that you are worried about being together. Not noticeable at all. You make such gorgeous quilts.

If you hadn't pointed them out . . .
Honestly, I can look at my own quilts a hundred times on the wall and think I've got everything laid out perfectly but when it's all sewn together the two colors that shouldn't be next to each other always are. I think they move on their own to be next to their friends.

May I ask where you found this pattern? I did a quick search which I hate to do, not good at searching the internet, but the patterns I found for Back and Forth are not like the patterns for the two quilts in this thread. I love your pattern. Both of you ladies made beautiful quilts.

Actually "Back and Forth" is just what I named mine. I saw a picture online and drew it up in my EQ5. I just think of it in rows with every other one going in the opposite direction from the one above it. I wanted my pieces good sized so I cut 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 and 3 1/2 x 6 1/2. It's really easy. You will have a lot of fun with this. I did mine in batiks, but it can be striking with regular fabric as well.
