I know this is a funny title for this quilt. The original pattern is by Laurie Bird, but Barb Jones and I wanted to make some changes to the pattern and make it more our own. It took us all weekend in Malad, Idaho, where Barb has a wonderful retreat home. She had to completely re-do all the math and we changed something in each of the blocks. Then we went on a fabric hunt and I chose fabrics which are not in my 'usual and customary' comfort zone, but I love, love, love the results. I will keep this one and use it as a topped on our bed.
Colors are beautiful in nature and in quilts
