    Beautiful, Leslee! I have this earmarked in my mag to make too. If I didn't have so many special orders to start, I would be working on this right away. I think it would look awesome hanging in my living room. A little spring to lighten everything up after this long winter in the mountains.

    To all who're curious...it wasn't a particularly difficult quilt but it was time consuming! I love to work in miniature and I enjoy applique. Those squares are one and a half inches finished and there are over 160 of them. Each is appliqued in place and the tiny flowers fit in 3" x 5" spaces. For another project, I think I'd make more of the flowers and do a row or so of the squares around them. They really would look cute framed. But an entire quilt again? I dunno...life is short!
