Hi Guðrún
This quilt looks really great and I'm proud to have been a part of making it. Somehow the world got a little smaller looking at your quilt!
About your new fabrics - I never liked purple tones in my fabrics, but working with your new ones just turned my mind.
Looking forward to seeing more.
Best wishes to all of you.

Isn't it great when an quilt comes together and looks even more fantastic than the blocks did individually? It's a wonderful pattern, that's for sure! Good Job, Everyone!
