This one is called "Coffee and Cream" -- a departure from what I usually do, but a lot of fun to make! I hope you like it.

Wonderful quilt, Laura. You must plan your blocks so carefully to get the effect you achieve. Great name, too. I happen to be drinking coffee and cream right now.

I'm looking at this quilt and then down at my cup of coffee with cream and, dang!...my coffee doesn't look that stunning! Lovely quilt that just draws you in!

Well, I do start with an overall idea and a bunch of fabrics spread out to choose from, but the exact placement is by trial and error. The reds, for example, were added later (but before the whole was sewn together). Then I have to live with it for a while before I can find a name...
I am glad that you like it!

Thanks so much, Sandrab64! I'm sure your coffee tastes better, though.

Sure think that is a cool quilt, the name is appropriate for the colors. Nice job. Did you design the pattern?
