DESIGN WALL MONDAY

This is the bottom half of the quilt - my design wall is short because of the height of the basement ceiling!  I started work on the final block last night!
 Block 9 has violet flowers.  The darkest looks less black than in the picture, and the medium petal has metallic gold accents.
 Block 10 almost looks Christmassy--I added an additional green to this block.
 Block 11 has paisley and polka dot petals!  This has been too much fun, choosing all the fabrics for the flowers.  
Since I have decided to make this without sashing, I think I have to plan something special for the borders!  Better get to work!
