Maybe throw in a tear drop. Or I saw one quilted with a top to bottom swirl/line and a wavy line between. (Can you picture that?) it reminded me a little of wood grain. Anyway, I'm sure whatever you choose will be perfect and will look awesome on the wall of your daughters future counseling office! :D
The fabric is Moda's Poems From Pebbles. I got them from Green Fairy Quilts. I fell in love with the line after making some bags with it.
I wonder if that straight line quilting idea is the way to go. I want to enhance or pop the shadow effect--not distract from it. Feline Fanatic is my quilting advisor, but she knows I need simple easy ideas... very simple, very easy. lol

Oh, now I see it! At first, when I looked at the pic I was seeing the cutting mat in the background and couldn't figure out " what shadow"! Then I realized my error and now, yes, looking good!
Me too. I was confused by the upper left corners being slanted, until I realized that the left strips were not laying completely flat. Funny how our eyes can fool us into "seeing" things.
