Thanks for your thoughts everyone.
Mama..
I love your dogwood tree and think that the further you go, the better it gets. I also love the picture in the book, but at this point..you have put so much effort into the tree and I do love the direction you are taking..I'd stick with it for my center..Then...I'd make some pillows or a smaller throw to go with the quilt when it comes home using the designs out of the book :lol: :lol: See how sneaky that is...I get you to use both!! :lol:
