I think this is just a fun quilt - LANTERNS - being done as a QAL over at Quilty Habit. Today the second lantern pattern will be revealed. I am using Kona Sand and World Tour by Parson Gray. There are actually two blocks pinned there as I plan on making the larger lap size and need double the blocks. I've had a lot of requests for men's quilts and this should fit the bill.
Boy, did I have trouble finding this month's color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge - I dug through everything and every place! Some ugly fabric got used - oy!! I used every bit (smidgy-widgies got tossed) and had to pull a FQ to get the last row on the log cabins. And to keep with putting whimsy in my Sprout blocks - look real careful - I had a 3.5" square that I used for making HSTs - so two partial fishy fun.
And since my swap partner has received the Monthly Doll Quilt Swap - Patriotic Theme - I can share the quilt that went with that little dolly.

The Lantern Quilt will be perfect for a gentleman. I love the blocks in aqua; the second one looks like a branch with flowers. Your doll and quilt are beautiful. Very nice things.
I like the lantern pattern. Your blocks always look so pretty.
You have been a very busy bee. Lovely stuff. I especially like the flag quilt and dolly. Thanks for pointing out the Lantern quilt along. Looks like a great filler project.
They must blend well together, because I see no ugly fabrics. Wonderful patriotic doll and quilt!
Wow! You have been on a creative quest! Your projects are gorgeous! Love your colors...
I love the World Tour by Parson Gray. You have a good eye for putting the fabrics together.
Looks beautiful, Sharon!
All your blocks look great Sharon.

Lanterns looks like a fun quilt along!
Love your teal/aqua blocks...great job at using up scraps!
The lanterns is a neat pattern and I also like everything you have made with teal this month.....I had better get to work on mine! Your little quilt and doll are adorable!
Those log cabins are amazing. I can't wait to see all your blocks together. And your little dolls are just adorable, love them with your doll quilts.
I'm sure your swap partner was delighted when she received the quilt and patriotic doll. They will be great decorations for summer holidays.
I have been enjoying seeing your Sprout blocks and the stars you have been making for the Rainbow Challenge. Finding teal in my scraps has been difficult. I finally dug into some yardage.
That is the sweetest little quilt and dolly!
What a cute doll and gorgeous quilt. I'd have a hard time parting with both.
