Until I realized that I had not figured the squares right. And it wasn't going to work at all. So, I put it away. And just about cried. 6 months later, I decide to use all the fabric. I really need a summer garden to look at in January in MN. So, I sewed. And, although this is not what I intended, this turned out better than I hoped it would. :)
