Oh, I hope the quilt police don't see this, I hand quilted the center in ivory and the outside in navy!

Very nice to see it in "adult" fabrics! I always loved this pattern, though haven't tried it yet. I love your fabrics!

The color scheme is dramatic and beautiful! Nice work.

Don't worry about the quilt cops -- they're probably still recovering from my "scrappy tumbling blocks" posting! They'll love your nice, organized quilt! (I used the same tumbling blocks method you did.)
