I really wasn't sure this color combo was going to work but I actually like it a lot. It reminds me of Juicy Fruit gum.
My next challenge will be finding the right backing and binding fabric. The fabric stash I have is really not adequate although I have a hard time convincing my husband of that!
I have so may finished projects I want to show you but I can't... they are gifts that haven't been mailed off yet and I can't spoil the surprise. I have sent out one that I can show you as soon as it is delivered.I am so excited about it.
Hope you all have a great day.

Your pinwheel quilt looks wonderful, I love the fabrics you have chosen, the contrast in each pinwheel is really lovely. Thank you for the link, it is much appreciated.
I hope you find some nice backing and binding fabric, and look forward to seeing the finished quilt.

Jennifer, I think the quilt looks absolutely beautiful! I love old concepts with a modern flair to them. I like that the pattern is classic, but the overall impact incorporates contemporary patterns.
I'm always blown away by the talent shown by people who can do these things. I entirely lack the crafty gene! What I really find striking about quilts that come together and work is that no one element makes that sense of cohesion.
It's interesting, there's a visual magic to a successful quilt. I suspect you already knew that, but I didn't! Thank you for the pictures!
Rita- thanks for the comment! You are my idol.
Shimp- Thanks for the praise. I have admired the quilts others made for years but the tradtional patterns and colors didn't suit me. It wasn't until I started doing "my own thing" that I began to feeling inspired. I cherish your comments please keep them coming.
