    Default Pink in the Garden mini

    This was our guild challenge for the garden themed mini quilts for the Boerne Quilt Festival this Saturday. I pushed the deadline as far as it could go on this one. I will be taking the binding off and redoing it when I get it back, but it's done and entered. The theme fabric we had to use is the center of the back. I was going to add cat faces and whiskers to a few of the flowers, but ran out of time. It would look better if the pink border was the inside border, but I didn't have enough of the blue.
    Thanks for looking.

    You're right, little cat faces would be a fun addition to that type of block. So many ideas and so little time - the bane of creative endeavors.

    You're entry is very cute & colorful!

    You did a great job in using that screaming floral. I like the way you quilted it.

    Those blocks look tiny! How big are they? I think you did a great job on the challenge. MQ you crack me up, "screaming floral" LOL, yup that is a pretty good description.
