That turned out pretty. So different from your usual purple

I love your quilt and orange is not a favorite of mine either! What a darling boy buying Mom fabric. I broke down and bought that Tiger Lily color. It's not as bright as I hoped for though, it's a bit on the rusty side. I love your fabrics!

You have a good memory! The majority of my quilts are purple. :)

Great quilt and I wonder if your son was hinting he'd like a quilt made from the material he bought?

Love the brightness of the fabric in your quilt and the pattern you selected. Your son saw a beauty I would have missed.

The two orange prints have flowers in them, so, no, he wasn't hinting for a quilt. I'd love to make him one, but he just isn't interested in having a quilt. He currently is a doctoral student at Oklahoma State University, living on campus. I sort of hope that when he is out in the real world, a quilt from Mom might be something he does want. Neither he nor my husband really like quilts, though they support my hobby beautifully, each buying fabric once in a while. Both have made it clear that I shouldn't make them quilts. Oh well.... Dina

it reminds me of a bonfire! what a great quilt, and how sweet of him to get you the fabric. around here, there are very few who would step out and get fabric for me. a brave and thoughtful man!
