I like this idea, couch size, and hopefully that is appropriate for a wedding gift. Once again love the colors in this one and the way they transition from top left to bottom right, blue to green.

There is just something about blue and green for me, I think I can just feel my blood pressure drop and my lips start to curl up. It's not that I don't love the other colors, I do! But these are just special. I like how you placed your colors in the quilt. For me, and it's a personal taste thing, I guess, but I also like the divisions to be mixed, not matched perfectly. This seems more natural to me. I know my daughter, who otherwise hardly has a fault haha :) would totally disagree. She would want to "fix" it and get all those lines to be longitudinally and latitudally correct. This to me would be far too regimented and take away some of the beauty of it. I find no fault in liking the straight line and sometimes even have the same reaction. I seem to be surrounded by only the "fixers" though. They tolerate me fairly well, considering, but it would be nice to have another Bohemian soul around. <br />Even I can't believe how long winded I get. All this is just to say, once again, Wanda, that I LOVE YOUR QUILT, haha. Just felt like shouting. I really do think it's so lovely :)<br /><br />Beth. P.S. Stay safe and off the snow as much as possible, please!<br /><br /><br /><br />https://www.facebook.com/beth.arcuri.7?fref=ufi#magistrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11349672558449319503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-39246197117129514682015-02-22T06:22:08.812-06:002015-02-22T06:22:08.812-06:00This is beautiful!
