This started out as just a random design I was doodling as I was watching a movie with my girls. I decided I liked it well enough to make a wall hanging of it. The fabrics are a bit on the "wild side"~ I have my youngest daughter to thank for that... she helped me pick them out. :D

p.s.
I am not sure what is going on with the camera.... kind of blurry photos, and I can't seem to "clean them up". Sorry!

The backing is actually black, even though it looks blue. Hubby helped me come up with the quilting design. This is my first machine quilting attempt, and I am quite pleased with it.

Go ahead, take a walk on the wild side. I like it a lot. Do your daughters quilt as well?
