I think that it matches just fine! It’s lovely!

Thanks for your comment on my blog. I am glad that you got a chance to see what the final color wheel looked it. I am really pleased by how it turned out and I really enjoyed your class!

The coloring is done with color pencils and then made permanent with a mixture disclosed in Irena Bluhm’s book – Quilts of a Differnt Color.

Your quilting is fantastic, Mary Anne! And, the coloring is a good idea. I think it pays to try to enter into some shows. What is the size of the quilt? I need perspective, LOL!
