I LOVE it!! Funny the first picture seems like it has more tans and browns. Either way, she is going to enjoy this for many years.

Very pretty, my friend!

Do I see a "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" in the parenthesis?

. Do you need selvages, Jane? I have plenty...

Thanks everyone for the kind comments..once you get the technique using narrow pieces it becomes quite easy, and the lc block plays well with scraps.

The first pic was taken with my kindle, the other with my camera...that's probably why the color differences between the pics. The second is more realistic...
When I make minis I usually use what is already cut in my scrap bins preferring to make the most of the smallest pieces. Often limits my color decisions, but it is interesting to see how border choices make colors in the blocks come to the forefront.
I'm working on a larger project my sis has different dubbed Time to Commit You...hope to get the flimsy done before by next week..
