I made this for my partner. I even quilted it. I'm glad he likes it because he's getting it for Christmas. It was hard to hide it from him as my sewing room is in our bedroom.

Great quilt!!! I love the colours. I also do a similar quilting pattern, I call mine a swirly stipple LOL, I find it easier than a normal stipple as it give me somewhere to stop and work out which direction I need to head next :)

I just want to DIVE in to the center of that quilt.

Looks like the ocean to me.

Wonderful selection of fabrics, and the touch of lime green - well, I think every quilt needs a touch of lime green.

Great work.
Enjoy it for many, many years.

That is very pretty, and the quilting is great!

It's wonderful! I know what you mean about having a hard time keeping it a surprise. I don't think I'd ever be able to make a quilt for my husband that was a surprise. I quilt in our dining room, and he walks through all the time. Your partner is going to love it! A gift of love, really beautiful colors.

Lisa_wanna_b_quilter 11-15-2012 10:40 AM

I like it. You always pick colors and fabrics that I would look at on the bolt and say "no", but I always end up liking your quilts. Thanks for sharing and helping me stretch my mind a bit.
