The main differences include the center square all being the same fabric and the fabric layout. It is scrappy, but all the pairs are the same...purple & pink, blue & yellow, and orange & green. I had meant to put complimentary colors together, but made a mistake. I like it though.
I spent a very long time on the layout. I'm not really going to describe the pattern to you, but it is there.
I put a minky cloud on the back. Because minky is for adults too. I thought the clouds went nicely with the trees, and was light enough that it wouldn't be showing up on the white fabric on the front.
For the quilting, I did three different motifs in the white squares. An 8-pointed flower, flower power - it looks like a chrysanthemum to me, and Fancy Hook Feathers (from 180 Doodle Quilting Designs). In the colored sections I did some leaves...ground cover for the trees.
Since there were so many pine trees in the quilt, it is only fitting that a picture be taken near a pine tree too.
This was my February goal. I finished it about a week ago, but had to hurry up and get pictures!
