Default My third quilt-top (DWR)

I want to show you this... with all its imperfections. I found an expression in Quilters World; "Confident beginner" I guess that's me!

I started this quilt out with just wanting to try with some scraps from my stash. I liked the crazy color combinations so much I just had to continue until I had a lap sized quilt. I ran out of the bright blue but I think my solution works somehow. It's not completely symmetric.

I know it's not perfect but I like it anyway and I am a little bit proud of having finished it. I will now get to quilt it. I don't think I am a piecer...

Crazy ideas on how to quilt it is appreciated. Would like to stipple all the white areas... don't know if this is a good idea?

Oh my! That's pretty! Confident beginner? I'm not confident that I could have done that well. I think your quilting idea is a good one. It'll make those rings pop.
