    Thanks everyone for the nice comments. And Carrie, great idea for the pink. I had already planned the narrow grey border and I know I have a dark pink (thanks to 5 granddaughters) in my stash. I'll post it when it's done. Now I'm determined to finish it.

I noticed you have a darker/brighter pink in the fabric, you could do a grey border 1 1/2", then finish with the brigter pink, therefore accentuating both pinks in the top. And I'll fight Vicky and Granny Fran for it, LOL! Very, very nice job you did here, by the by!

    I think it is really beautiful, I love those colors together...it has a very vintage look to it, dainty and very feminine....I love it, I think you should keep going!

    I agree. I prefer this look rather than the multi colored. Never put this on the list to make before but seeing yours has changed my mind.

    I think it's lovely. I agree it's not a pop of color, it's more subdued but the colors are beautiful together. What about a gray border and pink binding? Maybe that would give it the framing it would need to make the center rectangles stand out?
