I knew it would be wonderful, but the visual impact now that you've revealed the whole quilt is just spectacular. (Hey, and yea Bella for being spot-on picking the thread.) I'm hoping a lot of people who see you use the quilt as a yoga mat will ask about it so you can share the message with them. Have a wonderfully warm time in Florida! I didn't know you were hosting TGIFF this week, or I would have linked up.

Did the circles in the lightest pink print start whispering the quilting plan to you early on?<br /><br />I love the idea of you sitting on this beautiful quilt in yoga class, centered, strong, calm, flexible. <br /><br />Hope you're enjoying a bit of warmth in Florida! I have several finishes to share, just need to get some photos taken. It's windy and dirty here in the boatyard so I'll have to really hunt for a good photo spot.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-17891534452258135342018-01-26T18:27:35.418-05:002018-01-26T18:27:35.418-05:00That is just gorgeous, Sandra!
