I love the pattern. It looks pretty good the way it is.
You want it bigger?

It's for a king bed. I want a drop to finish it.

She likes simple, I say leave it the way it is. It looks perfect to me.

Thanks. With all the reassurances I'm getting from you guys, I'm feeling much better about it :).

I can't imagine her being anything but thrilled to receive it. (furball, included).

"Furball" stays with me :). Thanks for all the reassurances. I think I can finish it now, and like it.

I think it looks great. The border for the drop will finish it off nicely.

What type of quilting are you going to do? Or will you send it out?

I don't think it needs to be "sparked" up.
You say that she likes uncomplicated - I think this fits the bill.

It is beautiful as is. Plain and Simple.

Ditto!

Thanks. I'm going to add a 14" border for the drop in the olive green tone, the one with the yellow dots (if you can see it). I have two wonderful machine quilters available, and that should make it Perfect!!!
