I am in the process of making a quilt....Using a piece of wallpaper as inspiration...here is my center block. Now to design the rest...

Any sugestions for the patchwork around these two???? Your ideas would greatly be appreciated, as I have not even bought fabric for the patchwork, yet.

That is just so cute. I don't know what direction my talents are, but they are no where up to yours.

I would use some of the same fabrics from their clothes. The red and blue, maybe with some ginghams and solid colors. It would be cute to do a few random hearts appliqued on the solid pieces.

It's totally adorable. Good luck with whatever you decide!!

Thanks for the suggestion, Angie....I had thought of doing some random hearts with their names embroidered on them.

Beverly, you might want to do a red final border, to match the wallpaper. You are so very talented in everything you do, it's amazing.

Aw, thanks Ronna....I don't think it's talent...just a willingness to try just about anything..at least once. I agree....a red border would tie it all together, thanks!
