    Love your garden - I am in the process of making one and like your idea of putting color between - pops!! When you quilted it, did you use different colored thread for each flower to match? How did that look on the back? Did you use a solid or print for the back? Lots of questions, hope you don't mind. Thanks so much for letting me see this - I love it.
