I am also entering this quilt in the Bloggers Quilt Festival - the Mini Quilt Category. I made this quilt over the summer for the Schnitzel and Boo mini quilt swap on IG. This was a design I had seen on an accuquilt block contest that I used and interpreted for the swap. Final size on this was 20" wide and tall.
First thing I did was a test version in my own colors.
I decided it needed an added border and that I loved the spiral quilting. I gave her pockets in the corner for hanging and a little note on my label.
The recipients colors were fushia and orange. Not a color combo that I typically work in, but I LOVE! It was so fun to step out of my box and make this. And I think the colors are perfect for a flower.
If you like it, please go and vote for me at the Bloggers Quilt Fest!

Beautiful colours and nice use of drunkard's path blocks.
My colors are your colors! Love both versions of the mini. I'm gonna have to remember this one. I think it'd make a great pillow for my guest room.
Pretty, pretty! I love this one!
Love the colours and how they seem to blend into each other.
So so pretty! The feeling of the garden / flower is really conveyed! Fab fabric choices too!
Good luck in the Blogger Quilt festival!

this is wonderful! what fun!
It is beautiful! Love the quilting and the piecing both very much :-)
I love the color play in this and the quilting too.
I love both versions!
I really like these - both would make great pillows. I can even see doing them as raw edge applique to get a frilly edge flower after washing. Congrats on a great entry.
Voting for you! Good luck in the Festival!
