That is the name I'm thinking of for my gratitude quilt. It reminds me of Neopolitan ice cream with the three flavors: vanilla, strawberry and chocolate. Actually, these pinks make me think a little of Cherry Garcia. (can you tell I've been dieting for the last 6 months?) Many of these fabrics were earmarked for another quilt and all were just FQs. I was able to do all the little patches and still have enough from each FQ that I can still use them much as originally planned. Anyway, after the last two hour-a-day-quilts with their very brown/tan/gold/orange colors, the change of pace was fun. While I worried about how some of these pinks would go together, I love the way it looks. AND....no calories!

All the fabrics are perfect together - and so is the name. I love it! Remember, all shades, values, tints and tones of any color always go together. That's what makes the most interesting monochromatic color scheme. The more different pinks, blues, greens, reds, browns, oranges, yellows, or whatevers you have the more interesting the quilt!
I love it, love it, love it...perfect name and perfect color combinations. You did a fantastic job!
Lovely quilt and I like the secondary pattern in the sashing.
Great name for a great looking quilt. It makes my stomach growl though to think of neopolitan ice cream - a treat I haven't had in years.
Gail, I love your "Neapolitan" quilt :D and that what's it reminds me of too. Yummy! Great job!
Oh, it does remind one of that ice cream! Yes, I think I can tell you've been dieting. Is it working for you? Your quilt is lovely. It's the most complete one I've seen so far, so you must be staying right on target.
The colors look great together and I love the name you chose for it. Yummy! Personally I like chocolate mint ice cream the most.
looks fantastic! way to go!
I love the name of your quilt! The strawberry and chocolate go so well together!
Ohh, I LOVE Cherry Garcia... both the Ice Cream AND the Yogurt varieties. ;)
The quilt looks great!
No calorie Cherry Garcia sounds like a dream to me! The quilt is dreamy, too. :)
Wow Gail, you are going to town! Beautiful colors!
That really looks great! Makes me eager to get my P&B quilted and on the bed!
That is really gorgeous. I think it looks like Cherry Garcia. I like that much better than Neopolitan. :-D
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! I would say chocolate covered cherries.
Oh, wow, that is a beauty!!! Love your color combination.
My favorite ice cream! Love the quilt. Congrats. Siobhan

Looking good........... Neopolitan Delight is a good name.
I love it - I'd considered doing the Gratitude quilt in pinks and browns but ... lol
I have a huge pile of pink and brown fat quarters and such but can't settle on a pattern.
Yours is beautiful.
I love your colours! You are a bit ahead of me, I enlarged mine and have then got a little sidetracked... T
I love the colors and the name.
I have a set of pink and brown fat quarters I recently bought and am trying to decide on a pattern.
Gail, this is beautiful. Can you bring it to the Jo Morton class to show me?
