Design Wall Monday



This is my version of Julie K.'s header quilt. I fell in love with hers, and decided to make my own. It has been a couple of years in the making, as I accumulated plaids, stripes, and checks. It still needs a border, but I don't want to use piano keys, I am thinking about a burgundy stripe that I have in my stash. Check out Judy's blog for more design inspiration.

DD#3 has a four day weekend, so thanks to her, I have a fresh bouquet of daffodils on my table and homemade red velvet cupcakes too!
