Maggie's Quilt

This is one of my favourite quilt blocks - sadly, it's not a 'quilt' until it's quilted! I just love the colours and the design - all my own work with ideas and helpful hints from all sorts of people and places.
Like for example - the border of French Braid took me about 6 months to work out how to turn the corner while keeping the pattern going - it would have been too easy to have just placed a plain block in each corner but "no", I wanted to turn the corner with the pattern intact. Mind you, it wasn't 6 months of thinking of nothing else - it just sat in the background of my head, as I got on with life and eventually I got there! Yay!!!!

The only thing left to do, before it gets quilted is to appliqué some flowers into the centre of it - a bit like what I did on Julie's Quilt (see another entry on this blog), only different - the what is still being worked out in my head but I have some ideas in the melting pot.

PS: on the second photo, did you notice the "peep border"???
