What a beautiful quilt. Your color choices are so striking, I love your combination.
Sometimes I don't use my leftover pieces either. I keep them in baggies and one of these days I'm going to use them for a collage'd jacket or purse. Oh...to have more time....
I am just sewing the binding on my latest x-block...and yes, talk about different colors or fabrics changing the whole look. This too is a Nightweave design. It is going to my son's best friend Taxi. He is a musician and owns a piano bar. I am including a pix of the back of the quilt so you can see the quilting pattern. I just love it!
