    I have a picture of this quilt and have been collecting Kafe Fassett fabrics for it. I was hoping to find the pattern when I was ready to begin this one. DARN!

    It looks like you have some light blue fabric in there also. I believe that I only have the blue and white chosen. Will have to check the pattern. Did you get creative and add a second blue?

    Your quilt has turned out so beautiful. Guess I have to go and find a 2009 American Patchwork magazine although I am pretty sure that I can figure it out from the picture. Very, very nice!
