She had her room "redone" several months ago with lime green accents. For Christmas I found her a "husband" (no, not literally... it's a pillow with arms on it to lean back against on the bed when reading, which she loves to do!) Her mom & dad gave her an office chair in lime green for her desk & some lamps with base or shades in bright light green.
Some kids wouldn't really care that much about their room "decor", but when your mama is a decorator it's a different story.
Laying out the squares was the hardest part for me... I do NOT like to do puzzles, and this was like one giant puzzle. But I loved some of the fun & funky fabrics on it, especially the one I used for the border.
But my favorite "touch" was to add her name to the middle of the quilt.
Hope she has lots of fun snuggly times with this...

Holy cow, that is beautiful! And the greens are just lovely and vibrant.
I love the quilt! What an awesome gift. My grandmother used to make dresses for my sister and I for every Christmas and Easter when we were growing up. I was too young to understand the work that went into them, but looking back now I can appreciate them so much more. I so wish I had some of them now, but my mom didn't save any of our clothes from when we were little. I'm sure M will treasure your quilt for many years to come!
So pretty!!
