Most every quilt I make use dark bold colors. Pastels just aren't my thing. But Mark's Mom loves mauve, she's a real girlie girl. I love the log cabin quilt block. It has always been my favorite. Little did we know that we would be fostering a set of twin boys that were 3 months old back in 2003...about wthe same time we found this kit. So this quilt took a little longer than most quilts I do. I am possessed. Once I start something I want to finish it, do a good job and have the finished product in front of me is the shortest amount of time possible. I startedthis one in the beginning of September and didn't finish it until late, very late October.
A few months ago, Katherine decided that she was going to fix up the guest room AKA the cold room. Her color scheme now reflects my favorites, cranberry, green and gold. If you were to ask her the colors they would be way more descriptive than what I could ever come up with. So I get the quilt back. Fine by me...but does that mean that she wants me to make her a new one for the new color scheme? HMMMM...have to think on that. But I know just a few people that might say, get in the back of the line little lady, she owes a quilt before she can even think of one for your room. I hear ya all!

I can't believe anyone in their right mind would return a quilt. I know that may open up a whole other can of worms! But, it's a gift, not a loaner.
