I like the flowers at each set of leaves best. Put that up on your design wall and cut out a few extra flowers and ask her if she wants to add any more and if she does, have her place them. The design looks young and fresh!

My first choice would be randomly placed on the quilt, even down the dividing lines of fabric. If you really don't wnat to do that then I would go for a flower on most of the leaves ( BUT NOT ALL OF THEM ). I would add a little more interest by adding a few other things here and there like a bee, or butterfly, etc. Would love to see it when you finish please.

I like random, which could also include a flower being by a leaf every now and again... I also like the idea of maybe a simple butterfly or two, and or dragonfly or two...and the idea to ask her what she thinks?.. I agree about why even ask your son??..lol...I have had the same issue...and yet at times I still ask his opinion...sigh... :-) Aren't we the nice moms??...
Anyways, it is lovely already, and I didn't see a "so many mistakes" as you put it...great job!
