Well...after I uncrossed my eyes...lol! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Looks like great craftsmanship...just not my kind of fabric. Great job! BTW that is fabric from Connecting Threads. What is surprising is that they "group" all of their fabrics into coordinated groups. Apparently your friend is a free spirit!

I really like it. Didn't think it would really come good, but you came up with a really nice pattern. Lovely

Made me chuckle. Strangely enough I like those fabrics. Cheese and cracker thing was brilliant too.

You chose just the right pattern and layout for those prints. Unbelievable and beauty to boot. Thanks for sharing.

This certainly looks like the Hidden Wells pattern to me. There is a group on yahoo doing that pattern, with tutorials and all that. It's a great pattern!

The layout and the workmanship are beautiful and you did a great job of using the fabrics that you were presented with. It sure looks MUCH better than I expected when I saw the selection of fabrics.....you made the most of them. Good Job!

Very inspiring indeed!
I bought this fabric, which in reality did not look at all the way it looked in the catalogue. For the heck of me, I can't think of anything to do with it. (I considered dying it.) Maybe I can send it to you?

I think you did a beautiful job with the fabric you were given. Although I didn't really care for the fabric either, I think the quilt looks pretty good. Your work is gorgeous and I love the pattern. Two thumbs up!
