I posted this work in progress a couple days ago and stated that it felt unfinished. Since this was my own design, I chose motifs I liked or wanted to try and had no guide other than my imagination to help me. The sunflowers were particularly new for me; I have never attempted 3D applique before. I asked for input in helping me solve the problem of "finishing" the quilt. You were a tremendous help! Together with your ideas and sleeping on it, I knew what I wanted to do. I framed it in black (your idea), added corded leaves (my idea), and included my word in stitching on the border (your idea). Now it feels finished, I Love the look of it, and I hope my friend likes it too. It's a housewarming gift for her. Thank you for your help!
