quilt patches

Figured out the "trick:"

February:


March:


and April:


Note the darker blue patches in Jan. & March? I don't have enough of the flowered blue material to do the whole thing, so I'm sticking those in here and there. I think it looks crappy. Next time I'll buy material special for the project, but this is my first one and I'll use what I have on hand.
