Default I think these are going to look great!!
I am planning this oriental quilt using some panels. But, didn't know quite what kind of borders to use. Then one day I was looking on e-bay and found this pattern. I think these blocks would go great as a border. Sort of makes me think of lotus blossoms. What do you think. It was a vintage pattern.
Here is the panel I am going to use and the focus fabric. I have about 12 of the blossoms made so far. They are all stitched by hand. Can't imagine doing them on a machine. What do you think??

I think that is going to be just wonderful. I can't imagine hand stitching - Kudoos to you!
