Earthy Quilt - With Child's Play Pattern

I like to introduce you to the newest quilt from my studio - I call it Earthy.

Does she look familiar? She's made from the same pattern that made these two quilts:

They all use the Child's Play Pattern :). I love how different fabrics could transfer the same pattern into such different quilts. From the soft 'girly' Kohana quilt to the playful Hot Air and now to Earthy.

I love how all the colors worked together to create a very tranquil feeling. Reminds me of a peaceful garden with an oriental feel :).  Here's a closer look at some of the colors.  I love how the colors are so perfectly matched.
