I'm loving this!


This is the first quilt I have ever designed without a pattern.
All the flower scraps are coming out of my scrap bin and I like this.
I am making it with the new Kona muslin fabric that I simply love. I have always loved Kona and I actually sleep under a quilt that I backed with Kona.
I am liking the look of the Kona muslin since it looks antique.
There is only 1 block that for some reason does not have a flower in it but I have yet to decide how to fix it.
I may just applique a flower over it.
I know this is not a perfect quilt but I just love the scrapiness of it.
I will be hand quilting this one.

I love the scray-y-ness of the quilt. I would love to see it in person so I could better see each of the "flowers".

This looks so fun!

I think that you will even love this more the older it gets because of the projects it will remind you of. Very nice.

Don't fix the block that doesn't have a flower in it- think of it as a deliberate mistake or an artistic statement!

What a fun quilt. How will you quilt it?

Looking good. The muslin does look great. Also, like your postage stamp ottoman cover. The yo-yo's are cute hanging off the edges.
