OK, guess my earlier post didn't work. So excuse me if it went elsewhere, but I'll try it again. This is my first time trying to include a photo.
I made this queen size quilt for a grand daughters 14th birthday a couple years ago. It's mostly purples and green (Ashley's favorite colors). But some of the purples show up blue in the photo.

It is called "Amish Wedding Ring". But I didn't tell my Brian that! He's just happy the colors matched the motif in his room . I found it in the Encyclopedia of Classic Quilt Patterns (Leisure Arts).

Thank you for asking.

My son, Devan, chose the pattern and the colors for his quilt.

Notice how it "matches" his room!
