I love that one Kathy!

Okay! I've been playing in Gimp and trying some colors. I will have to buy the fabric that looks like wildflowers but I can come pretty close to the others myself. The border though is just way past my Gimp talents!

French braid is very easy and looks great as a border!

When I saw this line of fabric, I just fell in love with it - ordered it online and had to get it from a couple of different stores - got the earth tones. Still haven't figured out what I want to do with it (hmmm have a lot of that happening!) but your design looks great!
