I am happy to say I am finished with this quilt, except for a label! Its different than any quilt I've ever made. I would describe it as bright, bold, and striking. It looks like basket weaves.
Here's the original art work. The quilt looks a lot like it! I should have turned the quilt the other way when taking the picture so it would match, but then it would have dragged on the ground.
This picture shows the backing fabric. It was the only fabric I could find that would work and it turned out to be perfect. It has the same pattern as the front of the quilt, just no purple and red.
Now on to the next grandchild's quilt. Here's a sneak peek.
I am linking this post to Monday Making at the "Love Laugh Quilt" blog; to TGIF Friday at Alycia Quilts. and Finished or not Friday at Busy Hands Quilts

I am a huge fan of Bright, Bold and Striking. Rail fence is a simple design but it packs a huge punch in terms of visual impact!!! Kudos on the finish and good luck with the next one.
Great interpretation of the artwork!! Thanks for a look at the next one. Those colors are some of my favorites and I will look forward to seeing what it turns out to be!
This is just so special!! <3
Nice job! Is this quilt for the person who did the original art piece?
Congratulations on that bright, bold and striking quilt. =) It is all of that and more. That backing was wonderful for it!
Oh that is so bright and beautiful!!! I love the bold colors - and that it looks just like the artwork - so sweet!!!
It isn't always easy to make a quilt just like the drawing...you nailed it!
