Started in June 2006, finished about an hour ago -- almost two years later. Carol Doak's June 2006 Celebration Block.
It's in my Webshots Finished Quilts Album.
Time for a nap.

Lovely, lovely quilt, Kay. Enjoyed sneaking a peek at your other quilts too. Key lime and Lemon Meringue is so cheery. Love the color combination.
Best regards, Michelle in NV

Lovely, Kay. The way the deep pink appears in the blocks, disappears and reappears as the outer border is most eye-catching. Great trick! . In message , Kay Ahr writes

Thank you! The yellow and green was one of Jessamy's mystery quilts a year or so ago.

Thank you!! At the time I started it, I bit off a lot more than I could chew. I had to do a lot of fussy cutting to get the stripe in the center outline square and to get the turquoise-green pattern going down the middle of the piece. Then I discovered that the pale pink was really a stripe. What an amazing mess of fabric! All from my stash! Then the points. . . . .

Thank you!
That dark pink had to reappear -- there wasn't anything else for the border! Actually I think that idea comes from how I used to make clothes and things "had" to match.

Thank you!! It's all that practice with coloring books and the box of 64 when I was a kid!

Oh my, I didn't even notice that! Is it the pinks that do it? I need to find out how to do that on purpose. You're making me very glad that I took the time to finish it instead of just tucking the one block away somewhere. thank you!
