Modeling by Cutipie and Babydoll enroute to school this morning. I absolutely love this quilt. The colors are a variety of greens with pink and wine blooming within. It is amazing and conflicting in that these colors match perfectly both my living room and my dining room. Oh, but, where to go?
Even DH commented on the color combination being perfect, and folks, THAT is saying alot. Most days he dresses the girls and you'd swear we live in a house inhabited by only the color blind. Not that life can't be a fun and quirky spectrum, but I'd like a little harmony to feast my eyes...and it never hurts to blend in.
So I love, love my harmonic doll quilt. And check out Jen's clever hanging sleeve--there's probably a proper name for these nifty triangles. And the back fabric--devine!!
A day earlier and I would so totally copied the hanging triangles for my quilt. Like, of course. Next time. Here is what I am sending off.
There was a little playfulness going on when I quilted it. I like to call this diddy my Tic Tac Toe quilt as there is either an O or X the box.
Either that or Hollywood Squares. I just hope the recipient has fun with it. The colors are picked to fit that person so at the very least it might be enjoyed for that.
Unless, of course, he/she is colorblind.

I am sure I will love it...the finished quilts to date have been awesome....I will definately sign up for the swap again.....I enjoy your blog....
I mentioned on the swap blog that I love these wonky squares, and now I found the maker. Great job.
I call those hangers on the back 'fast-finish triangles' which I learned to do at the alzeheimers charity blog. The link is on my blog, and I can't remember it now.
I love those "wonky" squares too. That is a really neat quilt! Kindof Alice in Wonderlandish.
Love the quilt you've sent off! Fun colors and quilting!
