Indigo Ocean



This is a quilt that I just finished for my brother, Sam and his wife, Miyuki. Miyuki is from Japan. Several months ago I called her and asked her what her favorite color was. I think the quilt turned out very nicely. I hope they like it. It has a heavy dark blue flannel backing which I found very soft and warm as I had the quilt spread out over me as I was finishing the binding.



When I fly out to Missouri this week, where they live, I will be taking it with me. I’ve stuffed it into a carryon bag. And unless Sam and Miyuki look at this blog they won’t know it’s coming.
