My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to
make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of
snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep
warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids.
Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful.
Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

Trying different colors. The only way I can do it is to put it up on my wall. I am partial to the lavender one, The green seems to be too busy to me. Any thoughts?
I'm a bit more partial to the blue. The blue adds more contrast and makes the squares pop more, but I agree that the blue is a bit busy. So, try what Joyce recommends: use the darker purle on the inside too.
I like the lavender better too. How about the darker color that you have on the outside?
