    ooh Cathie, it is a beauty! The green and purple really look great togehter. Love the pattern but have never been brave enough to try it. You say it is a paper piece. Did you buy the pattern, if so where? I think that is the only way I would be brave enough to attempt. Once again you have outdone yourself :thumbup:

    Just stunning, of course anything with purple is good in my book. The older I get the more I like it. Ruth

    Love your quilt. But I am looking behind it at all of your fabric. Do you own a fabric store, it looks as though you have large bolts of so many different fabrics. I have always bee interested in how much fabric someone purchases when they see one they like for future, unknown pattern projects.
