Presenting... "Waltzing Matilda"

Here it is. I really like it. The individual blocks are 6" so the flimsy is 60" x 72".

I'm pretty sure this quilt knows where it is going to live when it's done, and it's a surprise, so don't ask. I've ordered the backing fabric already.

    Love it---I have also done this from Sujata Shah--did a class for this in Sisters OR. But have done many classes with her in WA. I hope my guess is right as to where this beautiful quilt is going. (and it's not my house.) :-(

    It reminds me of how an image looks reflected on water when the surface is slightly disturbed by a breeze. Very nice finish.

    Yes yes yes -- it is lovely! I think it should be called "Monet."

    Absolutely beautiful! I like the two rings of "busy" greens on either side of the plainer greens. And the center pink/red/ mauve is lovely. I can only imagine the impact the quilt must have when seen in person.

    Somebody's going to be happy! And it does need a new name.

    I think I need to pull out Sujata's book for inspiration for DS's quilt (in planning stages) that would be good for white-grey-black, with reds and maybe a bit of blues. Something modern-ish. And easy and fast since it will be king size :-O

    Your combination of fabrics in this one is stunning. A lot of movement in the low volume prints and the best combination of color, pink and green.
