I just finished this quilt top for my son's girlfriend for Xmas - he thinks she will LOVE it, it is really colorful. Anyway, by adding large borders and having big blocks, there is pleanty of "canvas" for Charisma to work her magic on!! I had the black floral panel that I bought along with a companion fabric which I used to uniform tops for my staff to wear on "fiesta Fridays", but just couldn't decide what to do with the panel, so I cut it up!! My only regret is that I didn't use just one or two fabrics for the alternate blocks in the center instead of different fabrics for each block.
