Looks like a beautiful garden. I would stitch some stems for the "flowers" and quilt with green threads in the shape of leaves. It is beautiful and very relaxing to look at.

I love it - I'd be happy to quilt it for you. I can imagine all over pattern of butterflies and dragonflies...or bumble bees....

I think it is lovely! It's an excellent gift for any child. As the child gets older he/she can try and spot which part of the fabric made the OBW blocks. Sort of like I spy only more challenging.

Finish it!

Well, I like it! If you feel very strongly about not wanting it, then finish it and donate it to Project Linus or some other organization that collects quilts for kids. I'm sure it will be loved.

Okay, heres my two cents worth: Give us a better photo of that scrap in the corner: looks like a toile, and ask QB if anyone can supply you with MORE of the same. Please tell us all the words that appear on the selvedge, or any additional information that you have about designer/manufacturer/or year of purchase. Seeking more of your fabric is definitely worth a try. As for your current Square, it looks to be about 30 x 30 inches... is that Correct? With a Blue border, that is definitely a good size for a baby quilt.

I love it! It looks like dandelion fluff in the breeze, but prettier! Do finish it up, I think judging from the comments you've received here that you won't have trouble finding someone to appreciate it!

I think it is beautiful, love the softer colors. If you don't want it donate it as a charity quilt.

I think it is one of the prettiest OBW I've seen!! So pretty and delicate. If you really don't want it you can send it to me and I would treasure it.

Don't toss it!! I think it's beautiful. Reminds me of under the ocean. I think someone will love it. If you don't want to keep it then donate to a Children's hospital or a Women's Center.
