On Thursday, I received a phone call from the Bride. She could not wait to send a thank you note. She and her husband had slept under the quilt the night they opened the gift and loved it! I think I done good!

BTW it turns out that they both love rainbows!! Serendipity!!

Can you share the name of the pattern? I love it!

Ladysuds, I guess you could say it is a variation of Yellow Brick Road. It is 7x2 inch pieces separated by 1 inch black sashing and then 1/4 inch (or so, I think it ended up being more like 3/8") black sashing between rows. In this case it was all about colour placement. I had 5 shades of 6 colours--30 different fabrics. Keeping it all straight was a bit challenging at times!
