The other quilt that came back from Colleen, along with Metroscape, was the Aqua-Red Sampler. I am very pleased with how it came out.

I am glad I made the decision to forgo the sashing. I think it looks good as is. The blocks don’t bleed into each other too much.

I noticed when I flipped the quilt over that the back was very cohesive, like I made the City Sampler back. I am not giving up my big bold flowers, but I might try and keep some backs similar to the front if the design warrants it.

This back is very subtle except for that one red rectangle. I wonder what I was thinking?
