I really like the vase. I would not like the teddy bear. I like civil war looks and this quilt looks great

It is wonderful! Leave it the way you have it. Any other ideas can be saved for another quilt.
GREAT JOB!

Oh I can't picture a teddy bear on that quilt at all! This is a much better interpretation....go with it, the center vase / flowers go well with the houses...(weeping willow idea is wonderful too) Teddy bear...no way.

really looking forward to seeing your completed quilt!

Pam,
It is fantastic. I wish I could make something so beautiful

I think it is lovely, BUT, I agree with k3n. I would like to see it with something more patriotic in the center like an eagle or flag. Maybe even a silhouette of a national monument or the capital building. Just a thought...

I personally like the old colonial loooking flowers. It does add a touch of round/curve to a very angular design. Gives balance, in my opinion. I like it very much.

That is the most beautiful patriotic quilt I've ever seen. Your choice of the flowers really makes it look great. Did you put all the elements together yourself or is it a pattern?

I do see the point of having something not so soft and contrasting but, I like the flowers the more I see it. The other motifs seem more masculine to me too. I am chomping at the bit to get the CDs I ordered and the different background fabric so I can get started on it.

Thank you. It is my own design using classic blocks. I like using classics put together in different ways.

The more I look at your design, the more I like the contrast of the softness of the center with the angles of the rest of the quilt :wink: And as always, I can't wait to see how it looks when you sew it together :lol: You'll have it done before I finish my black and white blocks for the exchange :P
