Very pretty - the word "serene" comes to mind.

Stuck to neutral colors with an off white backing.

I bought the PVC quilting frame from Joann's and love it for hand stitching. It has height adjustments to fit you and your chair. Gotta love that.

Go for it. It was a lot of fun to do. It was easy once I pinned the blocks to a large sheet that I pinned to the wall of my sewing room so I could make sure the layout would work well. It also kept me from putting the block(s) in the wrong spot before I stitched them. Please post your project when you are finished with it so I can share your creation.
