Thanks everyone for the nice compliments. I am just glad it is finally finished. DH said he liked the back best, too many roses on the front. lol. But then his favorite color is green too. The reason each side looks like I used two different colors of the same fabric, is because of the way I quilted it and turned the blocks, that gives the blocks a different color effect. I 'm sorry I didn't get a close up of some of the blocks. The quilting is very simple straight line, I didn't want to take away from the pattern, this is my own design, simple as it is. I am not great at free motion quilting. I did all of the quilt on my Bernina 930. Wishing everyone a great weekend, and thanks for looking.

Yes you see some yellow roses of Tx. She specified that she would like to have some yellow roses in the quilt if I could add some. She is quite a lady and mentally sharp and physically pretty spry for her age. She is still driving alone I might add, to the grocery store, Wal Mart and post office. I love the idea of the queen wave, I will definitely tell her today, she will get a real charge out of that comment. Thanks for the compliment.
