This is called a "coin" quilt, or sometimes "Chinese Coins". It is usually made with white sashing between the stacked fabric strips but I thought the black made the bright colors really stand out. That and the fact that Kelsee is not really a white kind of girl.
One of the things I like most about quilt making is putting the colors together. It was so much fun picking out all these fabrics but since I didn't know how much I'd need of each color, I have a lot left over. They'll show up in another quilt someday. In fact, I have some set aside for a quilt pattern that I was intrigued by but haven't had a chance to make yet.
