I've finished the top for my mother's christmas present and am now trying to figure out how to quilt it. I was thinking about feather hearts over the flower blocks with vines running through the sashes? Any ideas out there?
Thanks!!

I like your vines idea! It's so pretty. Isn't it amazing what color in a quilt will do?

Vines and leaves would enhance it's organic qualities. Very pretty! The borders are perfect for it.

Love your quilt! What a great pattern. Love the way the white sets off the bright colors of the flowers. As for the quilting, I like your idea of heart feathers and vines. Look forward to seeing another pic once the quilting is finished.
