I just love the colours - so bright and cheerful

MerryQuilter - I'm sorry for the loss of your Dad. It will be 4 years on the 22nd of this month since he passed and I still have 'those moments' every so often. I remember going to the grocery store about a month after Dad passed and I wasn't thinking about him at the moment. I walked by men's razors and rememberd him & I shopping together for them & had all I could do to compose myself in the grocery store. A close friend's Mom called after he passed. She is 85 and her parents passed when she was 35. She said she still sheds a tear every once in a while. You're right we were blessed to have them.

Thank you for your kind words about the backing even though batiks aren't your thing.

rebeljane & pocoellie - Thank you for the compliments on the quilt. Am glad you like it :)

LOVE IT...as I'm sure you Dad did also...beautifully simple, and just plain beautiful.
