Gray Matters Full Size Quilt - A Graduation Gift for My Niece

I've finally completed the graduation quilt for my niece.  It started out with only the Gray Matters fabric collection, but I ended up adding other yellows and grays from my LQS for more variety.  I found the inspiration for this quilt HERE. I'm fairly certain I got the colors just right for my niece.  We were at a baby shower together recently, and she gave the mom-to-be a baby blanket in these exact colors, polka dots and all!! I couldn't get a good picture of the loopy quilting.

Polka dot backing from Gray Matters Collection with strips of solid gray at the top and bottom.

... Yummy scrappy binding ...
Quilt Stats:

• Pattern:  None, just random width strips sewn together in a brick fashion ... sort of.
