    Colleen sent this OBW for LAQ.

    It just screams tropical to me with all the lush greenery and colors..( I don't know if it was an actual tropical fabric...but it did have some fruit)...SO I did an all over sort of design on the OBW area and did a half fern design in the outer border.....The finish is perfect....

    I used Hobbs poly down batting..This was quilted (freehand of course) on my 26 INNOVA ( I now have an 18 as well! YIPEE!)....I hope you all have a great day! Thanks for looking!
