Did the coffee grounds make the soil acidic? It seems like I've heard that acidic soil will produce the blue flowers. Personally, my house is where plants come to die...

By the way, your quilt is so beautiful don't blame you for keeping this one for yourself...

My Mother did the same thing! And hers were spectacular! She hit her tomato plants with a flyswatter, too, & we had enough tomatoes every year to feed the neighborhood!

Back to this FABULOUS quilt... it is just that... FABULOUS! You SHOULD keep this one for yourself! I know I sure would! I love it!
