To be wrapped in a quilt and prayers will be such a comfort to her through treatment. I love the colors and scale of the design. I'm looking forward to seeing how you finish it. I'm glad to know there's someone else who dithers over fabric selection. :)JanineMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475847392355523001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925931758682187912.post-84917689006456623352016-02-28T09:32:28.025-06:002016-02-28T09:32:28.025-06:00Thank you so much Diann! :)Thank you so much Diann! :)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786068334983762178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925931758682187912.post-19327370955783124972016-02-27T20:25:50.103-06:002016-02-27T20:25:50.103-06:00I just read your reply to the comment above, and w...I just read your reply to the comment above, and want to say I am so sorry to hear your niece is going through this.

The niece for whom I am making this quilt underwent a mastectomy last month and is facing treatment now.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786068334983762178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925931758682187912.post-42585240618483498302016-02-25T16:25:31.555-06:002016-02-25T16:25:31.555-06:00How is your niece doing?

Thanks for the suggestion - now I am thinking about using the purple/fuchsia as a narrow outline then put a white border around and finish with a neutral binding.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786068334983762178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925931758682187912.post-47754260974609119262016-02-24T03:50:04.724-06:002016-02-24T03:50:04.724-06:00It is looking lovely Linda!

I can't tell but it looks like the blocks making the pluses are large-ish? I am hoping to start a plus quilt soon.... I have all the fabrics - just need to get going on it.Bernie Kringelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00753481379287809548noreply@blogger.com
