Hi All: This is a lap quilt I pieced during the May Sunday Virtual Quilt day. Probably 95% of the fabric is from Connecting Threads. Usually use subdued traditional colors and patterns, so this is my tribute to "modern quilting". Loved getting away from my comfort zone! Pics don't show true colors but used bright turquoises and lime greens. Believe the super simple pattern was from Pieced Tree using fat 1/4s. This will be sent to San Antonio next month for my cousin Jim's birthday. I know it doesn't get chilly there often, but there are times when it may feel good to him when the AC gets a bit overpowering. Simple linear handquilting using blue painter's tape as guidelines. Thanks for looking.

I love this quilt so much! I like how simple it is -- it lets the fabrics & your fabulous quilting show thru beautifully. I know your DC will love this!

That's so pretty....I love the cheery colors.

Love the fresh colors together. Nicely done!

I love it.
I too usually use subdued colors or earth colors, but your quilt makes me want to also get out of my comfort zone.
Someday I will...

Fun quilt! Nice job! :)
