I didn't get back to answer questions because my daughter ended up in the emergency room this morning with kidney stones.
The quilt was a pattern that was blocks of the month. Each month you did one 12" block, one 8" block, and two 4" blocks. I didn't care for the assembly of the pattern but I intended to use these blocks since I had gone to all the trouble of making them. That was why I put the blocks in the borders.
When I started mixing some of these colors I thought it would not work but I just kept pulling more colors and then tied it together with the brown and green borders.
I did do the quilting too. I have a longarm and tried some custom quilting on this quilt because I was to the point that I hated it. I decided that if I messed it up, nothing would be lost. It did turn out better than I thought it would. Now I can move on to something more fun.
Thanks for all of the compliments. I just love looking at other projects on this site.
