I have been working on this quilt as a gift for my friend Mary. She has had a world wind romance and surprised everyone by eloping in January. They are having a formal ceremony in may. So I thought they would enjoy this. It's their colors. My husband says its to busy but I like it. Getting back to this after staining my cabinets (pic in chit chat). :-D

I've never seen one like that before, it's really cool!

I've never seen one like this either but it looks easier than the one's I've seen. Pattern? Great quilt and I really love your color choices.

Very nice! This is going on my list of 'absolutely have to make'!

Actually it sounds like it kind of fits her. Sort of a TATW in a whirlwind. Maybe that's what you could name it--Whirlwind Trip Around the World or just Whirlwind Trip. Anyway, it's a beautiful quilt and I'm sure that they'll both love it.

Beautiful!! All those triangles!! They'll love it.

What a cool quilt. I bet they are going to love it. Thanks for sharing.

I disagree with your hubby. I don't think it's too busy... it's just sharp and bold. Great job!

mimee4 04-05-2010 04:52 AM

It's fun to look at and see the optical illusion. Great work!!!!!!

Pam 04-05-2010 05:26 AM

Very pretty. It almost looks 3d, like a pyramid.

Gram 04-05-2010 05:48 AM

Just Beautiful!!! :thumbup:

Exactly this.

Very nice. I like it. :thumbup:

susie0808 04-05-2010 10:40 AM

Thanks everyone! My points aren't perfect on a handful but most of them are accurate. I am not a perfectionist but I do want it to look good...Made so many and didn't want to start tearing apart.

mom-6 04-05-2010 10:45 AM

The closeup looks more busy than the whole thing all together...that looks like a mosaic...like it!

borntoquilt 04-05-2010 11:51 AM

That is a real "eye popper"! Are you cross eyed yet??? It is beautiful. I love it..

It has a optical illusion happening, does any one else see it?
