    Found this one in a book... in pinks. I like blue!

    It is a queen size and the binding is done as a wrap-around... the backing comes to the front and is sewn in place. Hand quilted.

    I LOVE it!

    Gorgeous! It looks very pretty in blues and white. So crisp! I just saw a video demonstration of that binding technique.

    What a beautiful, beautiful quilt. What is the name of the block? I like the binding idea. I may try that. Your colors are gorgeous and I sure see why you like the quilt. I do, too.
