    I really like your quilt. I wish I were talented enough with using colors together to make something such as you have made. You have a real talent with form and color placement.

    The batiks give it such a boho vibe. Your quilt will dominate the design of any room.

    Thank you for the suggestion Thinking ferns

    Pieced it! Now to decide what fmq sts to use.

    I have it hung in the hallway using skirt hangers for now.

    Thank you all for the vote of confidence to continue with this quilt. Much appreciated.

    Happy quilting.
    June 2020 update...…..Yet another
    unfinished quilt top decided to complete it as a HS graduation gift end of this month for a granddaughter. Wanted to add size but could not decide on a border style so decided to add more blocks. I think it was the right decision.

    Size has been updated from 72" x 60" generous lap size to 90" x 78" I am proud of my hard work these last couple days to achieve it. I had to reverse engineer a block to come up w exact size. I am attaching pics of the updated quilt top.
    I have a couple of weeks to sandwich and quilt it.

    This is a beautiful use of colors and your individual blocks blend to make this look like one continuous piece of art. Thanks for sharing.
