Not sure I noticed that before. Really rocks!<BR/>The America letters are great..*VBS*<BR/>And what a great outcome from that pile of unloved arcs. I think some rest from it is needed before a final decision. I like it as far as you have gone.

Your quilts are always cheerful and fun. The "America" quilt is striking, bold and graphic. Well done! The arc quilt is about as far away from my style and color scheme as you can get, but sometimes that allows for more objectivity. Personally, I don't think the turquoise is a good border choice. The center of the quilt is marvelous the way the colors meld together. The purple frame provides a good rest for the eye. The first thing I thought of for a border was a Kaffee Fasset stripe. He's bound to have one in that color combination. Good luck!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035433796631359696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-16819768275038175072007-06-18T15:30:00.000-04:002007-06-18T15:30:00.000-04:00I like what you did with the Indian Orange Peel Ex...I like what you did with the Indian Orange Peel Ex-Arcs.
