I'm so happy to be able to show this quilt. It started out many months ago when I had an inkling to make a colorwheel quilt. I thought I was going to make Jovelle Hoverson's giant colorwheel, but then I put an arc on the design wall and it took me a different direction. I started playing with those graceful arcs of color and Life in Technicolor was born. It's a queen sized baby and fits in my guest bedroom just perfectly. This one will put a smile on your face on the dreariest winter day.
Angela worked with me on the quilting. As you can see...simply stunning.
Can you say, breathtaking!
My favorite part probably doesn't show in these pictures, but I love the rainbow colored binding. Have a happy weekend everyone! Another new quilt on Monday!

Wow, stunning!
Totlly Awesome it is!!! I love it, the fabrics, the quilting!! I want to be your guest so I can sleep under it ;-) Amazing!
Breathtaking indeed!
stunning!!! i have been working on that quilt for a while but i need a few colors to finish my "wheel"... but i love how you went in a different direction... looks amazing!
No, I can't say 'breathtaking' because all the loveliness really has taken my breath away. Your design is inspired and perfectly paired with the quilting. I am still breathless, but I can spell 'collaborative creativity.' This is part of what makes quilting so special to me. It lends itself so well to bringing hearts and hands together. Thanks again for sharing your art as it evolves. You really inspire.

Absolutely Gorgeous! WOW!
WOW!
Sweet!! Reminds me of broken lifesaver candies :) lovely quilting!
Wow there are people who set the bar, and there are people who vault over it. That is probably one of my top three favorite designs. You out did yourself!
Such an original design! Beautifully executed, and the quilting is fabulous!
Thanks again for letting me work on your quilt......you are awesome to work with!!!
Wow! Exquisite. Love the arcs, love the quilting, and love the detail like the fussy cut of the HR tadpole fabric! Just love it all!
Beautiful, stunning! Thanks for sharing a pic! Lookign forward to Monday for another revealed quilt...
Absolutely stunning...
Wspaniała narzuta! Kolorowe tęcze są cudowne!
It is beatiful!
Wow this is gorgeous! I especially think the quilting brings it all to life and compliments the piecework wonderfully with all of th archs. I can't afford to send my quilts out nor can I free motion quilt yet - so I try to avoid large spaces of one color - but Id love to do something like this one day. Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh my gosh! That is so beautiful. Great job!!
Wow, what amazing quilting! And I love the design, such a fab take on the usual colour wheel thing.
wow, jacquie! it really did take my breath away. lovely!
Oh my goodness! This is so amazing. Both the design and quilting are fabulous!

All I can say is WOW to every aspect of this quilt!!!
It's spectacular!
I absolutely LOVE IT! The colors make me so happy on this rainy Portland day, and the quilting is fantastic!
What a gift to be able to see these quilts in person. It is fabulous and Angela is a true artist. Beautiful work Jacquie!
It was such a treat to see this quilt at last night's KCMQG meeting. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!
This is so beautiful and the quilting is AMAZING! I am in awe of you, Jacquie!
Absolutely stunning. Can you tell us a little more about the actual quilting.
Simply stunning - a real joy to see - great work

Just gorgeous!! As always. Both the quilting and the piecing. Love it!
Speechless, A-MAZ-ING!!!! Love it!!!!
Wow! I've had my eye on the color wheel quilt, too. (Some day...) I love what you have done with it, and the quilting is just perfect!
It is so beautiful! I love how cheerful it is, and it is sure to brighten the day of anyone staying with you! The quilting is perfect for this as well!
It's like a promise of Spring, sunshine and warmer weather to see that beautiful quilt! There's some great fabrics and also the quilting in the arcs that I missed seeing last night. You and Angela make a great team! Thanks so much for sharing!
It's stunning and giggle worthy at the same time!! What an awesome combination!!
WOW!!! I am in awe of this quilt, I love it. The quiting on it is amazing too... I'm going to keep staring at it for awhile now.
What a beauty, Jacquie! I hated to miss Angela's program last night, but woke up with the stomach virus. I was so bummed. See you next month, hopefully!
Oh. wow. I know I say beautiful or gorgeous to every quilt I see on here (because they are) but this is stunning!
Stunning! That quilting is absolutely out of this world, and please tell Angela I said so! Absolutely gorgeous, and yes, it makes your heart sing just looking at it!
beautiful! love all the colors! this quilt is something I aspire to! thanks so much for sharing!
Inspirational!!!!
I have a stack of fabric waiting to be made into the colour wheel quilt but you have taken it beyond wonderful.
Now I am wondering about where I can take the design when I eventually get to making it up.
Congratulations on the beautiful quilt and the beautiful quilting!
(You deserve the overuse of exclamation marks)
Truly amazing! Love the design and the quilting is awe-inspiring!
Wow, that is a fabulous quilt - design, piecing AND quilting! And I'm sure, even though we can't see it, the binding!!
Really gorgeous!! Can't stop staring.
Definitely breathtaking! Absolutely fabulous!
This is just beautiful! The circle quilting on the white background really adds a nice dimension. Well done! You are an inspiration :)
Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful!
This quilting is stunning! Would you happen to know what type of machine was used to quilt this? I'm in the market for a new sewing machine. Thanks!
breath-taking indeed!!
This is such a fabulous quilt that I keep coming back just to look at the quilting and all of the colors. I love the way this turned out!
It's gorgeous! And that quilting is stunning!
Beautiful! The colors look so clear and bright!
WOOOWWWW!!!!!!
This is, by far, the cheeriest thing I've seen all night! I think I'm going to send my MQG members here to look at this so they can see what we mean when we say "modern!" :o)
It's really great. Really really.
very neato! you're really getting through some UFOs there dear!!
Thank you for letting us feature this gorgeous quilt on http://moderndayquilts.tumblr.com
Yes, breathtaking. Especially with that quilting. No exclamation points needed.
WOW! I love your quilt! It makes me so happy. The quilting is awesome too!
Oooohhhhhh! That is wonderful! I love how you've pulled the color wheel apart and how Angela's quilting brings it back together. Very very nice.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this -- I am making the Colorwheel quilt and somewhere along the way my arcs lost their perfect-ness. Thus when I line them up they don't exactly make a perfect circle. I was soooo bummed and was trying to figure out a way to make it work.
This might be it!
Oh Wow, I am really behind in my blog reading so I usually just get rid of the majority and now i am so glad that I did not.
That is one amazing quilt.
This quilt is simply gorgeous! Well done!!
Very Stunning and the quilting is awesome.
