"Fractured"

Recently I finished this quilt, "Fractured" by Kathy Doughty.  I have collected fabrics with turquoise, pink, and purple for a long time, and I used a lot of them here.  The blocks were cut and sewn together in fall 2014 before I started traveling to Chandler to care for e, but then it languished in a stack of unfinished projects.  Finally I quilted and bound it this spring, but I don't think I have posted a picture.  While many of the paths can be traced around the center, I think some of my fabric choices could have been improved.  For instance, the second block from the top on the right side--in this picture there's almost no contrast between the two fabrics.  It's a little better in person, but not great.  It is 70 inches by 59 inches before washing.  Quilting is a rectangular, diagonal grid.
