Penguin quilt for school auction

This is the quilt that will change how I do quilting. I was asked to make a quilt for a school auction for a friend of a friend using colors of the penguin (the classroom motto). I've not indulged in solid colors for quilting before, but this quilt has changed that. While I love the beautiful patterned fabrics, solid colors really make a quilt stand out to me.
