Because I think I want to buy it!<br /><br />I don't think I've seen bear paws done with so many colors before, but I'm really liking that. Which photo is the truer portrayal of the colors?<br /><br />Once a post-open heart patient went ballistic on us and it took 5 of us to hold him down long enough to attempt an NG tube, since he was refusing all meds. Funny thing is, he'd been my patient pre-op and he was just the nicest man. Now in full post-pump psychosis, he threatened to hit me if I attempted the NG tube. I said it wasn't the first time I'd been hit, and I'm sure it wouldn't be the last. He declared, "You look like the type who needs to be hit!" lol<br /><br />After the psychosis wore off, he was his sweet, gentle self again with absolutely no memory of the event. His wife, however, was mortified!Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613883248899266708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758475602275745268.post-36534817955792455352009-07-15T07:47:49.568-05:002009-07-15T07:47:49.568-05:00Ooooh, girl, I do LOVE your bear paw quilt!!!

I just love color and lots of it in quilts.
