Really nice, I love blue and you did a great job.

Your quilt is beautiful! This graduated look is so striking, probably more so because of the simple fabrics you used. Great job with the borders and corners. A winner for sure!

Very pretty. Thanks for the idea. I have lots of blues that I'm not using very much,but I wonder how this pattern would look if most of the material has a print instead of being solid blue?

Thanks for looking!

This is absolutely awsomw, the shading of Blues all around the quilt are just pristine.
You should be very proud. Thanks for sharing, KJHH

Lovely. I especially like the borders - the way the colors flow - and the corner treatment. Great job.

QuiltnLady1 07-18-2012 04:59 PM

Your quilt is beautiful!!! I love the blue and you have executed a wonderful blue quilt. Great design and great job!! I took a class a few years ago and the teacher said the one thing no one in her class should do is use different shade of the same color -- that waved a red flag in front of me so I choose to do mine all in blue. She was amazed how nice it turned out.

Your choice of colors to produce the shading is simply wonderful -- again great job!!

wildyard 07-18-2012 05:13 PM
