Comments
The center block is a design from a class with Becky Goldsmith. In my spare time, I like to make leaf appliqués from my scrap bag. The blue ones found a home here. After making the center and the four leaf borders, I felt it needed something. The multi-color stripe was an unlikely choice at first, but to my surprise it worked.
