Blue, Fabulous idea, great execution and as for your energy levels.....truly magnificent.
Sorry for the loss of your "quilt inspector"... I am sure this quilt would get many pawprints of approval.

You can always make a case out of the fabric I sent, later if necessary. I am so thrilled to hear that you will be using it. I am still reading my magazines that you sent & love them dearly!! Thank you again!!

Would a simple vine appliqued be too much in a black border? Maybe just in the bottom and left corner borders. Or in opposite corners maybe.
Blue, glad to hear that losing wee kitty, sent you in a very positive creative coping mode. A fine tribute. After all, she is playing in the sunshine, with the butterflies now. :wink:

WOW! The butterflies were a terrific inspiration! How about a solid black border and then a beautiful multi-color stripe cut on the bias for the border?
Sorry about the quilt inspector.......My condolences!
