It sure is beautiful, but some people just don't like red. I have a friend who can't stand orange. I would find out how she feels about red.

Stitchit123 09-06-2015 07:07 AM

I think its very pretty - and I am not a fan of pink or red.

tessagin 09-06-2015 07:09 AM

Love it, the colors, quilting and everything about it.

However it 'grew' the finished product is wonderful.

rosiewell 09-06-2015 07:39 AM

I think it looks beautiful, unless your friend has a red color phobia, I think she would love it

Linda1 09-06-2015 09:03 AM

I love red and put it in most of my quilts. I love your quilt.

ManiacQuilter2 09-06-2015 09:06 AM

It is very pretty. I have seen this pattern before. You did a really nice job making this cheerful and bright quilt.

Clarice29 09-06-2015 11:08 AM

It wouldn't scare me. I love it.

wildyard 09-06-2015 11:32 AM

Dang, then that means I wasn't in the running. LOL, beautiful quilt, lucky friend! I am collecting florals on black backgrounds to make a very special quilt and yours gives me some ideas on ways to go with it!

IBQUILTIN 09-06-2015 12:02 PM

Its not too radical at all, I love the way it all came together. Great job

paintmejudy 09-06-2015 12:33 PM

Love your quilt, Angelia.

joyful1 09-06-2015 12:34 PM

What a lucky friend! This quilt is beautiful, glad she likes it, and doesn't even know it's hers yet!

joyce888 09-06-2015 12:45 PM

I think it looks great Angie! Your reds and pinks look to have the same undertone and play nicely together.

mojo11 09-06-2015 01:01 PM

I usually wouldn't put pink and red together, but your quilt is beautiful. The colors play well together. Also love the secondary pattern.

Friday1961 09-06-2015 04:27 PM

Not too radical! It's fabulous! Love the pink and red and print together, and the backing. Your friend will love it, not to worry!

ccthomas 09-06-2015 05:32 PM

Nice quilt.

ccthomas 09-06-2015 05:33 PM

Nice quilt.

Jingle 09-06-2015 06:32 PM

Don't know about too many reds, just know it is beautiful.

Gail B 09-06-2015 06:57 PM

Red is my very favourite colour and your red quilt is lovely.

onaemtnest 09-07-2015 04:29 AM

Improvisational? I so agree with Dresi not everyone can do improvisational as well as your quilt demonstrates that you indeed have that 'gift'! I also agree with Jeanne that the secondary pattern keeps the 'eye' dancing back and forth.

Job well done and don't forget to let us know just how delighted your friend is with her surprise gift!

annette1952 09-07-2015 07:29 AM

I just love it! I think all of your fabrics play well with each other. Great job! I would love a friend giving me such a beautiful gift.

mstalnaker 09-07-2015 04:38 PM

It's beautiful. What a lucky friend!

PenniF 09-07-2015 05:38 PM

I think it's beautiful.....and i am not a pink fan.
PS....i have both the flower fabrics in my stash....love those too.

maryellen2u 09-07-2015 08:14 PM

I love it! Thank you so much. I'll PM my address to you so you don't have any trouble mailing I to me. You are too kind! Thank you so much! :D

Annz 09-07-2015 08:41 PM

Very attractive quilt.

Bluebonnets 09-07-2015 09:04 PM

Beautiful and I love the way the colors play together!

corklass44 09-08-2015 06:37 AM

I think it is dynamic!

lyndi 09-08-2015 07:13 AM

You're quilt is beautiful. I love everything about it. Not sure you want to take my word for it though because I'm proud not be of the "average bear" type.

heather1949 09-08-2015 11:59 PM

Great work, lovely quilt :)

Iraxy 09-09-2015 10:44 AM

I think quilts should be happy colors and this one certainly is. In the dreary winter here in Oregon, I put out my brightest quilts. I just love how they make the room cozy and warm and bright.

kaylfordsollimo 09-11-2015 10:17 AM

What's not to like?

nannyrick 09-11-2015 03:29 PM

I did a sneaky thing. I posted the quilt on Facebook, and the friend I made it for (a surprise gift) said she loved it. What a relief! :o She will be really surprised to get it in the mail next week.

hahaha very clever! Such a lovely gift for your friend.
