It is so pretty. I liked both versions but have started making these blocks and mine are so busy I googled the quilt for inspiration and came across yours.

I did one last year in soft pinks yellows and greens. Its still not quilted though as i can't decide on HOW. for that reason the second setting as used in Sue Daly's "This goes With that" might be easier to quilt. I would suggest you consider how you would like to quilt it and then make a decision on your setting.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06694207845080624507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4001566343778555121.post-57016743260872970442014-02-10T21:07:21.872-05:002014-02-10T21:07:21.872-05:00I'm so sorry you have the blues!

Not sure why. They really are wonderful colors. I too have had the blues all day today--though I haven't been so productive as to do anything about it quiltwise. I'm afraid I've just been using chocolate therapy, which leads to a different kind of blues when I try to fit into my jeans.Donna~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08983652387362967468noreply@blogger.com
