    Sometimes I hate artists… oh did I use my out loud voice? All to say I truly love this. I wish I had your eye. Or inner eye…. as the girls and I are saying lately (since the Christmas Party Tuesday night) "You're The Poop!"

    I think you're the only one I've seen use this ombre fabric truly successfully, and it looks fab!

    Very inspiring! I think you've captured some of my favourite things in this quilt – simplicity of design, thoughtful fabric choices and that x-factor that just makes you gasp. This is one of those quilts where I think "I wish I'd thought of that"! Enjoy 🙂

    You know, if you don't have a home and display place in mind for this beauty I think about half the internet would be happy to take it off your hands. It's just gorgeous – but you know that already, I'm sure.

    Love the quilt. Very colorful and the backing fabric looks great.

  31. <3 <3 This is the best, Joshua. The best. I am so glad you made this little quilt! (Shhh don't tell I think it is my favorite you've done yet.)

    Do you know of a Martha Graham bio or doc I should read/watch? I know there is the one that is her autobiography, is that the one I need?
