Center of Purple Garden Nouveau

This is my newest project.  It is another Garden Nouveau quilt from Vicky Lawrence's book.  My first one was similar to the one on the cover of the book.  It was finished in February 2011.  I have wanted to make a purple one for a long time.  During the trip to Paducah in the spring, I found vibrant batiks that I wanted to use in the quilt.  I have to put the inner borders on so that I will know the size for the embroidered borders.  Many more hours of stitching to finish!!
