I love it and I want it! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Even the small touches, like the little pinwheels on the edges. A few small blocks and it makes that whole section sparkle.

And the whole background is Fossil Fern? How fabulous (and useful) was that print?!?!?

I wish you many ribbons. You and the quilt deserve them.

Unfortunately when I found it on line I wasn't sure which FF color I had, the carbon or the other almost black one. So I have an extra yard of the other almost black one in my stash.
