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.

Repeat of some of the the colors from the quilt top.  Simple and elegant :).

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.
