This has been more difficult than I thought it would be. It isn't the sewing, it is the planning and color choices. Would someone just stand over me and tell me which comes next?

| The middle will be the largest section of medium toned fabrics |
The problem with this kind of design as you go quilting is that I have no neat little piles of cut fabric to work from-I am pulling everything from my stash-what a mess!
Lots of thoughts crowding each other in my brain-what color flowers will go in this section?, Will this print be too busy behind the flowers?, am I being too conservative?, How do I move gracefully from color to color? can I go from light blue to dark purple (or should it be green) in one quilt?, when will you finish the baby quilt you are supposed to be working on? I want to have the back done before the quilt retreat at the first of August so I can finish the top during the retreat.
On another note-I hate tomato worms-pulled 2 off with tweezers yesterday-yuk!

Elaine, I hear you. Art quilts are messy. Your sewing room still looks a whole lot neater than mine.
Tweezers? Tee-hee! I just grab those little suckers from the back, yell, "Green Snake!", and pray that they don't bite me. Ugh!
