Now, this quilt, I LOVE!
It was inspired by this flickr group.
It is a total scrap quilt except for a bit of the white.
It is a lap size, measuring 54" x 70".
I will be sending it to my friend, Jill, who lives in AZ, and is battling cancer.
I will be signing off for the rest of the week. We are on spring break (which means that we got dumped on with snow) and we are headed up to MN to spend some time with my sis.
See you next week.
Be good while I'm gone.

Well, I was going to say that your latest quilt is gorgeous....but i read through the other comments and everyone seems to be saying the same thing,... I thought maybe you would like to read a couple new adjectives! Hmmm so lets see... I would say it is.... Kaleidescopically Delicious (and awfully cozy looking!)
WONDERFUL! I love all the great fabric choices and I spot a few of my favorite fabrics in there too.
This is so colorful and spring-like and perfect. Beautiful work!

This is so gorgeous. I love the fabrics and design.

amanda this is another one of your quilts that has inspired me to make two with touches of white. I like the calmness in the sea of action that the white provides
I just found my way through your blog. Great quilt. I will come back. Have a great Sunday!
Just so beautiful, really like how you have set your big and little log blocks. You are very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
very beautiful quilt!
Are there directions to this quilt? Block size? Strip width? I love it and have many scraps to make it. Love your blog.
I have been looking all through your blog and I am amazed at your wonderful and prolific work! If I may ask, did you have all the fabric on hand as scraps for this quilt or did you go buy especially co-ordinating fabric? fat quarters perhaps? I would love to know your "recipe" for this quilt! The colors are wonderful.
edna,
this was indeed all scraps from my scrap bucket over several months. some of the white was bought or from the stash, but the rest was truly scraps.

gezina,
I'm sorry to say that I am not ready to share the pattern for this quilt at this point.
