Blues by the Bay (60 x70)


I finished piecing the blocks and sewing up this quilt top.  I'm calling it Blues by the Bay after a local music festival.  The colors remind me of a summer day near the water: lots of blues and greens and sunny accents.  I think I'll skip the border on this one and send it to Debra for some simple modern quilting.  It'll make for a nice sofa quilt come fall.
