Thanks to all the comments I received on the last post, I was able to make a decision — and decided to go with the Oriental GFG blocks. The picture above shows the border fabric I’m going to use and the fabric I’m using to set the little flowers into a rectangle.
This gives you an idea of how the flowers will look against that background fabric — I’ve started putting it together and hope to have it ready so I can attach the border by the end of the week. With any luck, I’ll get the borders on and the quilting done this weekend. That’s the goal, at least.
And, just because, yet another picture of Lester — about 5 minutes after I had groomed him. He loves to chew on his ruff and his fur within seconds of being groomed.

That is going to be a very pretty little quilt. Love Lester’s pic, too.

Nutty kitty… My girl will pull her fur! No kidding, you can tell she has done it because she creates tufts of fur. (not unlike a cow lick!)
