I'm quite happy with it so far, of course it needs a lot more stitching. I'm wondering about forgetting the tulips and building a broderie perse garden with these flowers and the lovely New Zealand fantail. I don't think I'll be giving much away by saying the quilt will be travelling to a far away country and the New Zealand touch might be welcome. I'll search out some more flowers I think...

I love the background, don't know what a broderies purse garden is but the other fabric are pretty. Especially like that your making your own design. (I need a pattern for everything!)
Broderie perse is where you cut motifs out of fabric and applique them onto a background to form a design or picture. I was thinking of cutting out the flowers, and making a tree or two for the bird to perch on.
And you might need a pattern for everything but I'm awestruck by the tiny wee blocks you are making - just amazing.
Ok, the weekend is over, I've been checking your blog to see that background sewn together-whatcha doin???
