Finally, I got this one finished! You would think I would have gotten more done, since I've been home with this vertigo. For some reason, I only feel half as productive. Today was a good day and I did get this quilted.
I ended up using the blue print for the border because it made the blue flowers in the window box "pop". It was my first choice, but I did audition a red, a brown, and a rusty tone.....none of them worked and seemed to be more of a distraction overall.
It is time to begin Justin's quilt for his graduation. So I will begin cutting tomorrow. His choice is simple--- squares with a prairie point style border. He just wants it BIG. That shouldn't be a problem....I have a big stash to use.

Is there a tutorial to learn how to blend those squares so that they end up creating such an illusion of bouquet of flowers under a window? I really would love a tutorial on this technique.
