The diamonds of this interesting quilt block, combined with bright, vivid colors of yellow print, plain blue, and scarlet, create a design that is well nigh unbeatable. It was named by an enterprising young southern woman after the seaport city on a western island of the Florida keys.

I wonder if the "enterprising young southern woman" was on vacation. The Florida Keys would be a nice place to be when the weather was right. Perhaps a road trip in a brand new V8 Ford?
