This quilt is from Amanda Jean's Running in Circles quilt. I've decided I need some white or some kind of rest for your eye. Sometimes I can't tell how it's going to turn out until I actually see it. I do like quilts where there's just a wash of colors, but this one might be too busy. I can't tell.
Busy or not, I still like it.
Pieced back.
Spiral quilting in the circles, tiny stippling around it.
The colors look more pastel (and really, truer) here in these pictures -- more sunlight, guess.
I made the binding for this weeks ago, and it has just been sitting around waiting for me to have a spare moment. And there it was this morning. I'm not sure if I'm keeping this or sending it to my niece. When she was a baby, I did not send her a quilt (long-ish story, bad time in my life), so now that she's three or so, maybe she needs a big-girl quilt. But first, I have to finish the one for her new baby sister that's coming this fall. The list goes on and on. And on. Happy Quilting!

I really like this one! I don't think it's too busy at all. The pattern is still clear and that makes it ok. The colors are perfect for a little girl!
it looks great, Jessica! i like it with all the colors jammed together. such a happy quilt!
thanks for linking up to finish it up Friday!
I love the color choices, great finish. the quilting truly makes it special.
I wouldn't change a thing! I absolutely love it just the way it is. Congratulations on a job extremely well done!
Its not too busy (and I dislike overly busy quilts). I think the pattern makes each chunk of fabric big enough that it decreases the overall 'noise' of the fabrics. Its a great quilt.
Love the running in circles quilt. I really like your fabric choices!
