What was your inspiration?

The easy pattern....its a trick that looks sooooo hard but is so easy with great effect

What are you most proud of?

getting it all right

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Think about your colors. You will need to put lights on darks and darks on lights to get the best effect. Would work really well with plain colors such as Moda solids.

A very striking quilt - and I love the fabric you've used for the back too. As you say, it doesn't look easy, so if I was easy, that's a great bonus!
