Finished Flimsy: Keep Positive

Although I've been distracted and it took much longer than it should have to get this top finished, it is finally finished. I'm calling it Keep Positive.

The palette was inspired by these prints, and I pulled lots of greys and a few yellows from my stash. Then I threw in the red and the blue for more variety.

When I showed it here when it was laid out on the design wall, I mentioned that I added a little surprise. Look who made an appearance! The colors in the Paddington Bear print worked perfectly, and a whimsical touch wouldn't be out of place here.

This will eventually become a donation quilt, but everyone can use a little positivity and optimism now. At 56 x 67" this will make a nice throw for someone. It's not too feminine or masculine, not too elderly or juvenile.
