I put mine together about 6 yrs ago and it's called The Natural. Great learning experience :). I like your quilt colours, it's a little brighter than mine I think. How will you quilt yours?

I don't yet have a plan for the quilting. Any suggestions?

Thanks for all the positives, everyone! I think I will end up loving it once I put a nice 80/20 batting in it and get it quilted. If it looks good I'll show it again, finished.

What's not to love? It is beautiful.

Your quilt is awesome. Scrappy yet organized. You just need to look at it everyday and you will appreciate it more and more! Thanks for sharing it with all of us

I just love scrap quilts and yes they sometimes a pain to make because of the placement of the pieces but oh do they turn out nice.

It looks awesome

Nice quilt and kudos for hanging in there to complete it! There should be a special category for"like but not love" quilts!

Thank goodness I got it finished. I like it but don't "love" it... just real happy it's in one piece, finally!

It is very pretty seems like the harder the work the more beautiful the quilt. That's what I think anyway. I like it a lot.
