Sweet Sixteen quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
I designed this quilt a couple of years ago, made the quilt top and stuffed it in a drawer. So I finally got around to quilting this summer. I'm in love with it! It was meant to be a valentine quilt but really I think it could be used year around. I'm considering making another one in blues and yellows, and maybe one with more earthy colors for my daughter. It's measures 75 x 75 so it would be cute tossed over a chair or on the back of her couch. The pictures were taken at my neighbors house, she has such a lovely farmhouse.

Beautiful work! Don't limit it to Valentine's Day, show it off all year round!

Really beautiful crisp colors and design. I'd love to see it in other colors though these fit the design perfectly! Love the diamond/xxxs quilting in the center and across the pink border.
