Show Your Colors Quilt

I finished a pretty quilt to show you. I started it in October and showed you a few blocks here and here, but here’s the completed quilt. (click to see it large!) It’s an original design in layout, however the blocks were from various sources. Each block was a major undertaking, and I had a lot of fun challenging myself with each one.

What a beautiful quilt! It screams spring! Do you hand quilt or free motion?

Thank you Sherrie! I know it is very springy, I guess I can work on spring any time of the year! It makes me happy!
I free-motion quilt on my home sewing machine. I quilted this whole quilt in just three days, so it’s probably not my best work, but I do like the quilting pretty well. You can click the closeups to see it better.
