Great job! It is very handsome! My husband keeps watching as I'm hand-quilting his new one! I destroyed two blocks, so I had to scrounge enough similar colors to remake them. He said, why don't you just add a couple of unexpected ones! Well, I found some fabric that would mix in well. Because of his comment, I appliqued 3 butterflies too! He likes it. I'll post a photo when it's done.
