Thanks for the idea of red in there (SouthPStitches also suggested red or another color for another quilt I am going to do for the oldest daughter)- I will be trying to make the youngest DD and her hubby a black n white quilt (they would like old Hollywood as they are film buffs). I am going to look for film material when I start it, they have to decide what type of block they want as they are very minimalist in their style.
Very nice quilt by the way .. good job !!

I didn't use batting in this one, just two layers of flannel. Next time I will use batting for mine, because I want it to be heavier (and I am going to have to research how to do it, lol).
Although this is not for DH, he liked the weight of it because he likes to throw a blanket over his head when he naps on the chair.

I've never even bothered to look up the Go! Cutter before. I've seen a lot of you talk about it.
I'M RUINED! I'm not going to be happy until I get the cutter and the rag die. I'm on my 3rd rag quilt, although mine are width of fabric rags. I hate the snipping. And I've got to repair one strip that I messed up.
I've also got fabric for a rag quilt for my younger DD, but I've been dreading the snipping.
And Christmas and birthdays are past. Darn it.
