You’ve Got Mail


A package arrived in the mail today,


and what burst from the box as I opened it



 was this riot of colorful zigzags!



It's a Streak of Lightning quilt made by Wanda Hanson of Exuberant Color. I followed its progress with interest, having never seen anything quite like it.



Usining Sujata Shah's design and Vicki Welsh's fabric, Wanda achieved a 

make for one very lively quilt! Which 

color combinations do you prefer? 

It's pretty hard to 





It covers me perfectly from nose to toes and is just wide enough to keep me warm without entangling my arms in extra quilt.


Whether I’m snuggled under the quilt or admiring it from across the room, those colorful zig zags make me smile. Thank you, Wanda, for a gift that warms both body and soul.
