I finally have pics to post. This is a black and white version of 3 Bean Salad. I am really pleased with how it turned out. It took over a year to find all the garden themed fabrics and then pick the pattern.

She likes it so much, she keeps it in a plastic comforter bag and won't use it because she's afraid to get it dirty. :wink: :D

The back is a cool fabric with zodiacs and clocks etc. Will have to get pics of that some other time.

Great quilt, Wendy, I used the sunflower material for backing for a blk and white I did. Have never seen the 3 bean salad, have to try that one.

Three bean salad has never looked so good to these eyes. Fantastically graphic and yet beautifully simple!! Great job. Two thumbs up!!

WOW! I love that one!
I don't think I've seen "3 Bean Salad" before. It looks great - it was definitely worth the year's wait!

Three Bean Salad is in the Leisure Arts book "Wild About Flowers" if you want to make one. It was very fast and easy.

Thanks for all the complements!

I knew a B&W quilt would be stunning, I'm currently collecting for one myself, hope it turns out that good. Mine is not a salad or beans, it's called Road to Freedom by Patrice Johnson. Hope to have a picture soon of some of the blocks.

That's absolutely gorgeous. The fabrics are beautiful and so lovely together. Pity your daughter won't use it and show it off though!!
