The designing continues for this quilt. Over the last year or two I have been trying to use the ginkgo leaf in different ways. We last left the quilt with 2 ducks and some cattails and things were looking up. The design phase wasn't complete, I just needed to tweak it a little more.
A few lily pads would fill the space without competing too much with the ducks.
I cut the lily pads from a hand painted green that I had painted several years ago. There is a soft contrast between the cattails and the green pads. I like the way it is looking. And in the meantime, I've moved the lily pads here and there at least 10 times.
The pads cried out for a lily, so I made one out of white fabric and fused a bright yellow center. Oh yes, this is good. Well, maybe one more flower is needed.
One more tiny lily has been placed in the upper left corner. It will be moved around many times before it ends up in the right place.
Is it done?

I don't know if this design is done, Ann, but it sure looks good to me. :)
