On to the revised version.....I kept looking at what I had on the design wall and felt it was just too dark at the top. It felt weighty and was very much like one I did before. So off it came. I wanted to create the image of old stone work along the top with the vine growing up one side. I also reworked the flowers, and removed the pieces for the window box. Russ suggested I do more of an offset design this time...hence the extra row on the right. I think I might accent the offset with borders of different sizes too. I can decide that later.
So far I am pleased with the result---just a few more tweaks in spots. Then to get all the pieces fused in place---before they fall off the grid. Once the seams are sewn, I have plans to add details to the windows and such.
The blended braid is about half quilted---2 projects going at one time and the sewing room is a disaster. I need to clean up all the 2" squares so I can get back to quilting.Happy stitching,

Debbie your window box watercolor design is gorgeous. I love to see watercolor quilts but have never tried to make one. Are the assorted florals very had to find?
Yes, much better! It's beautiful.
