I love to be able to use up scraps of DP. Today's Free 4 All challenge gave us that opportunity -- make a quilt! My DP is from Basic Grey's Wisteria paper pad, with a border of Sage Shadow -- which I think is my favorite shade of green. The sentiment is from Art Impressions' Sewing Studio. The ribbon was in a package of six ribbons I found on the clearance table for 97 cents! It had just the right colors in it.
I just noticed that one of my quilt squares is not lined up the same as the others. Oh, well, I'm not taking it apart now!

Lois, I love the papers/fabrics you used on your quilt!! It looks fantastic. It even has a cool 3D ish look before you zoom in on it. You did a great job!!

Beautiful!!!! I thought that having a square turned differently than the others was the quilters signature. This is perfect just the way it is! I had actually thought that you meant to turn that one square. Lovely colors and I agree, I think that this green is one of my favorites too!

I love these papers together! And your drawn zig-zag is so true-to-life, I had to look three times to see that it is made with a pen! Really nice card.
