Fun Handwork

I've enjoyed working on this project, and it took a week's spare time.  We've been on vacation with our daughter doing all kinds of things.
I took this outside to get some good light for a picture.  I still have a few holes to cut on the backside to take the papers out of the appliqued flowers, and leaves.  I like something to do when we are watching a movie or listening to the radio, and that will work out fine.

Here's the backside.
Boy, it's such a nice day outside!  We've had a lot of grey skies lately and it's so good to see the blue skies again.

Now I'm ready to work on the pieced inner part of the quilt so I can return the book to the library.
The pattern calls for plain corner squares on the ends of the borders, but I'm thinking about jazzing it up a little.  I have to remember to make it fit with the same look though.  Hmmmm.  I don't want it to compete with the border strips, but I don't want it plain either.  What to do.  I have a while to mull it over while I'm working on the other border strips.
I linked up with amylouwho's sew and tell.
