It looks like a picture of flowers. I really like it.

Definitely finish it - I think its very pretty and will be a lovely little girl's quilt. I like Ugly Cook's idea of some appliqued butterflies too.

I love your quilt, this is eye candy to me. Most of the OBW's I have seen have been dark and bold, but this speaks of soft and calm. A child would love it because it speaks 'soothing and calming' to me. I love it.

I think it's beautiful, it reminds me of abstract snowflakes. I'd buy it if you wanted to sell it that's for sure! It's just beautiful to me.

Explosive blessings, abundance and inspiration to you all!

It is a gorgeous piece of work! It looks like the flakes (looks like it) are floating and gently settling to the bottom of the quilt! It is absolutely stunning! I think it would suit as a wall hanging as well. Well done! :thumbup: You have done really well and I like it. Send it to me if you need a home for it! :lol: :lol:

An OBW = one block wonder. One piece of fabric is cut to make either 6 or 8 pieces that fit together to form rows which are joined together to form either hexagons or heptagons.
