HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW!

Aunt Millie’s Garden has finally stopped growing.  It is finished at last!  I’ve only been working on for about a hundred years.  It’s about time I got it finished…right?  I love how this turned out.  Of course there is one huge mistake which I am not going to point out.  Let’s just say that Aunt Millie’s Garden is made of 12 Flowering Blocks from Piece O’Cake Designs.  It is designed by Becky Goldsmith and Linda Jenkins.
I took a number of pictures trying to get a good shot for you.  The quilt it too large for my living room floor where I usually take my photos.  Above, it is by the sliding door so I could get some good light.

Then I took it outside and put it on the bench on the deck.

Then I spread it out on the grass…and finally gave up trying to take a good picture of the entire quilt.

This is a close-up of one corner.  I’ve shown most of the individual blocks previously.

This is a close-up of a side border.

This is a close-up of another corner with a touch of the backing showing.  This busy backing helps hide those quilting mistakes.  It was a fun quilt to make and I can’t wait to put it on my mother’s bed.  However, first I have to take it for a little show-n-tell.

ON ANOTHER NOTE: It is so busy at this time of year, however, we still need those last minute gifts.  Moda Bake Shop has a tutorial for 30-minute gift simply colorful coasters.
