in nature, they'd be random, but I prefer them placed closer to each leaf - either way, I love your colors!! She's going to love this gift.

Needs more for color. Random.

I like them on each leaf.

I like them right above the leaves.

ditto

I put lots of them on the stems

I like the one with each leaf set.

I like the flowers on top of each leaf section, that flower fabric is so cute and makes the quilt POP

I also vote for random because that is the way life is --- and nature! However a butterfly or two would add interest - and yes, DON'T ask the boys!

YES...You get a star on your forehead for being so good...just stick with us here and maybe someday you will get a candy bar...lol

And it makes the quilt seem rigid to me. Mother Nature likes to put flowers everywhere she can! Go out and look at them in your neighborhood gardens.

Play with it, and ask the young lady. You two can decide where and how many, and it has nothing to do with boys' opinions. This quilt is for HER.

If you're going to have borders, maybe save a couple-few of the flowers / butterflys to scatter in the corners or elsewhere too.

Ooooo lookie!! My 1000th message! Well aren't I special! Or just WAAAAY too chatty... Do I get some sorta prize now?? :lol: :lol:
