I got my catalog yesterday and it is on the front cover. If you want to see it, go to Keepsake Quilting.com or call 1-800-865-9458 and ask them to send you their catalog, volume 23. It is a fabulous looking quilt and it wouldn't be necessary to do the fancy-schmancy stuff that's in the border. It looks easy to make. The biggest drawback that I can see (using your fabric) is that her flowers are on a white background which blend into white squares & triangles for the other blocks, etc.

If enough, make wide borders with it (or use it on the back) and pick up the colors from it for the blocks.
