    It was worth waiting for! It's beautiful. The applique is a perfect compliment to the watecolor and vice versa!

    When I first looked at it, I didn't realize the green was part of it. I agree that it would look better without the green - a bit too much contrast and maybe too wide?

    Ohhh, wow...great job!! I also think you can make a better choice than the green. It takes away from that spectacular watercolor look! My eyes look like this :shock: looking at that quilt!

    Hi . :lol:
    can I put my 2cents in? I love the quilt but feel that a darker border would be better. possibly a bit like the darker colour in the rh corner?
    Have not done a watercolour quilt but have it on my "to do" list.

    A beautiful quilt that was well worth the wait. Thanks so much for persisting! I like the green, too, but I agree with kathyd--I would make it narrower and then add a wider darker border after it.

    Cannot wait to see what you do with it!!! It's spectacular!!!
