Your quilt is just beautiful. I use Kona snow all the time and have really good results with it, have never used the milk color before. Your quilt turned out great.

Wanabee Quiltin--I think Moda is the one with the color "snow". That was the other quilt I made with white and I was very unhappy with the quality of the Moda snow. I used a charm pack and many pieces had somewhat of an imperfection in the weave (almost like a jumbled knot). That fabric was very thin. Maybe as yardage it is better quality. Certainly then I could starch the life right back into it maybe.

You are a genius! I never thought of putting the borders together and then attaching to the quilt. This will save lots of shoulder strain as well as the inaccuracy of dragging the whole heavy mess through the machine. Thanks for the light bulb! Beautiful quilt! I've noticed that after I have the batting in I like the white blocks better.

Beautiful quilt, love the pattern and colors you've used. I use a lot of Kona cotton usually in white or cream and I do feel that oddly the weave does seem to be looser than at others even though I purchase it at the same place, it seems so weird to me. But when its quilted it has all come out just fine at least for me, I'm sure it will for you as well.

I absolutely love the colors in this quilt. Of course, I am drawn to the white & aqua-turquoise colors personally. I think you did a fantastic job on it. I'm envious! :-)
