Making me smile

I am so happy to have this quilt back from my good quilting buddies, in Turlock, California. These ladies are a lifesaver, and do the most beautiful quilting jobs, EVER!
Thank you Pat and Dea!!!!

This quilt is going to be a gift for someone special, so I can't do the full reveal, just yet! I'm just basking in these luscious colors.

What do you think? It is so summery and gorgeous.
I hope I can part with it~

Reminds me of spearmint, raspberries, watermelon and cantelope melon, along with a little Asian influence.
I think I will call it Xlang Xlang Spice!

Time to go work on the binding.
Looking forward to a relaxing weekend. Temperatures are heating up out here! It's 102 F. today! Yowzers!!!!

Update: it's now 108 F. *ugh*
