I'm taking a quilting class (first one) and making the quilt for my mother for Christmas. We didn't have a choice of pattern, but I like what we're doing (Aunt Vinnah's Favorite). I'm not trying to surprise my mother - she does not like surprises - so I told her the color scheme and showed her the pattern, to make sure she liked it before investing all the time and $ in it. I had hoped to do a "punch" of yellow accent but she said she didn't think it would look good.

Below is the square I finished, with a multi-color floral "accent." I cut out squares of yellow to show some variations and I want to present them to her to see if she'll change her mind.

I was also thinking maybe a combination of all ... I have to do 42 squares total.

Please "vote" on your favorite. Any tips or comments would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Sharon - enjoying life today!!!
