Great quilt

That is really cool! I've never seen that effect before - using the black as a shadow. Very nice!

I'm a retired construction inspector, and if she doesn't like it then you may send it to me! But I think she will.

She is sure to love it. I've not seen the shadow box pattern before but I really like it.

Neat idea!

What a great idea. Congrats on her degree. My daughter got her degree last year in CM and is working on light rail projects these days. It's amazing what CM gals can get out of their degree - and your student worker is to be congratulated on persevering in getting it done.

Love the quilt. May I use the idea in one for my daughter?
