I love the colors in this quilt. Looking at it reminds me that spring is right around the corner. I finished this one in January, but I didn’t like the snow photos I took of it.
The wind today didn’t allow for such great photos either, but at least the colors are more true to life. Here is the back:
I quilted this with my favorite thread – Aurifil. I used a variegated type for the first time and I loved seeing it work it’s magic on the quilt. Major oops on not getting a detailed shot of the quilting because the thread is very pretty (Aurifil 3920) and variegated is a nice complement to stippling.

On a side note, it feels good to be blogging again! I’ve been in a creative rut lately, but I do have another finish to share soon that I’m really, really excited about. (Really, really! 
)
I love those colours, Lisa! It’s very cool to see the palette at the bottom, do you do that for all your quilts?
The colors are great. I think I always like the colors you choose. And I, too, like how you put the palette on your post. It is nice to see the start and finish date.
I love how you share the color palette! Such a richness to them, reminds me of the sand and tall grasses at the beach.
I love this quilt! Can you tell me what pattern you used for this quilt? I’m curious how big the blocks are.
Thanks! Just found your blog and am enjoying reading through it.
