In general, I don’t do mysteries very well. I like to make informed choices. So, when the Meadow Mist Designs introduced her most recent mystery, I headed for the “peek” option. A friend was diagnosed last year with thyroid cancer, so I planned this quilt for her.
The backing (ah, blogger arrangements) was a piece I hand dyed last summer. I love it.
The pattern was delightful as always. Please dismiss the distraction of the green setting triangles. They weren’t green, but my green batik bled. Badly. I soaked the finished quilt for two days and still have green triangles. (Shrug.). Let’s pretend it was a design choice. And it would be flat if I’d taken the time to smooth the folds out. I am generally in too much of a hurry and it shows.This is (as usual) not a pattern I would have chosen. I like it very much.

It's beautiful, but still a lot of neutral in the background. Your next one should be all color.
i like the quilt and I don't mind the green setting triangles at all! It's definitely not your style but it's a pretty quilt and will be a great comfort quilt from your friend.
