Yes, I think the yellow is now toned down. The quilt is beautiful. Just a thought and a question for the expert quilters. Would doing an all over FMQ in blue variegated thread tone down the yellow more or look funny on the yellow?

Blue and yellow are NOT my favorite color combo, in fact I'm not a big fan of blue at all. But I LOVE your quilt!! It is gorgeous, and I think you did a beautiful job!

This quilt takes me straight to the beach on a gorgeous summer day!! (Which is a good thing as we are due 6-10" snow here (finally!) on Wednesday.) I'm glad you made it exactly as it is; it is one happy quilt!

Jan, I would send you all the ice, snow, freezing fog, sleet, etc. that we have had since Thanksgiving. We moved to Texas to get away from all that! Ah well, enjoy your snow, just gives more time to quilt. Spring is the next season, right??

I love it. Blue and yellow are some of my favorite colors together. I'm trying to work up enough nerve to do a Bargello. I will use yours are inspiration. And yes - I think the blue border tones it down nicely. Great job.
