Your center is gorgeous and I love Pam's idea :D:D:D

It's beautiful! I would see how the words would look around the pattern before cutting them. It may lessen the elegant look. A beautiful script letting would work.

OK I am a new quilter, I love the idea of a flange but have never done one, so I have a few questions. Does the flange lay inward (on top of the center peice) or point out toward the border? next how wide do you suggest? (the bias strips are 1/4" and 3/8" not sure if that helps). But I like the idea of a flange. Doing a Red flange do you still do a red border or would you move into a white border? So many questions

That is exquisite work! I think your plan is great. I like the idea of words-small, embroidered in a very fine, elegant script-Mama Bear's signature-like?
