    Default Neutrals with a pop of purple

    This is my first design on EQ 5....I saw a version of this quilt on the web, I believe it was called confetti, on Loft Creations blog. I had been playing with pinwheel designs, and I know this isn't a complicated design, but you have no idea how computer-challenged I am! . I used neutrals from my stash for the background, and a deep purple for the pinwheels....this is for a young lady who lost her Mom right before Christmas...her favorite color is purple, and her high school colors are gold and purple...the back is a little more vibrant. Was so much fun to see this become a little quilt after planning the layout on the computer! I also printed out a quilting motif and transferred it onto the quilt. Thanks for allowing me to be excited!
