Green is my favourite colour, especially with that flash of pink. Think this has inspired my next scrap quilt - thank you.
Beautiful green and Pink? [or is it lavender? ] At any rate just beautiful...
Hope that Show goes on for you...

Congrats on completing your challenge quilts! Those are both very GREEN. Reverdie is SEW much more Julie-ish (and happens to be my favorite of the pair!!)
How different the strings look. My organized mind prefers the traditional strings on the right, but both pieces are filled with spirit.

Wow, "it helps if you listen in circles"....food for thought. Thanks, Julie for that quote.
Green with a touch of hot pink! Wonderful.
Fun design journey! Working in series is the best.
I like the quote, isn't that the truth of it?
Both of these are fantastic! Reverdie really grabs me though, so rich looking. Good for you getting in a couple more wonderful finishes!:)
What fun creations you have to share with us! There is nothing wrong with being a bit different, I am for sure!
Lovely mix of the pink with those delicious greens and I do like your unusual setting for the left hand quilt.
