    Default Grandmother's Flower Garden WIP

    I've been working on this since Thanksgiving. It will be full sized when done and I'm about 40% there. Its fairly scrappy with a few hard and fast rules. The white has to be either white on white or solid, the black has so have some pattern on it and the gray just has to read gray. What do you guys think? Oh its going to have 3 borders, a bright green (you can see it on the top edge) followed by gray then black.

    Having it up on your wall so you can see it growing is satisfying, isn't it? Going to be a beautiful quilt.

    I think it looks great! I've been working on piecing one by hand for a long time.

    Looks great! I've been working on a Grandmother's Flower Garden since way before Thanksgiving and I don't have nearly that much completed. You work fast!
