    What's next now?
    Weeelllll, I have at least 24 projects in my head... and I need to start the ragged flannels. But, on my way through the countryside to my favorite quilt shop this morning, I got another idea for this pattern--I'll call it Fall Swirl. I even picked up some batiks to help! :D

    This pattern is so good for stories about color!! :wink:

    It's gorgeous, and absolutely perfect for you! You're keeping this one for yourself, right?

    That quilt is drop-dead gorgeous. I can't believe you found a fabric that so perfectly matches your photo. It will be a very, very special gift for your daughter, but if I were you I would give it some practice time (as on your bed) before putting it away for her.

    I love the quilt, awesome job, the colors are the key for me. I have a lot of these colors sitting in my stash just waiting for the right pattern. Can you tell me the name of the pattern and/or where you got it?

    The mitered boarder came out wonderful. What technique did you use? I may have to try it!
    I actually read about three ways--and decided on this one and it worked great. I found it by searching in Main. It's here: http://parkcitygirl.blogspot.com/200...d-corners.html


    Can you tell me the name of the pattern and/or where you got it?
    The pattern is called "Shadows on the Pond" and it's in McCall's Quilting August 2009. I bought rulers to make the cutting easier, but there are templates available. The rulers are cool though because now I can make it any size I want. :D
