I have fallen in love with the city of Nashville. I love everything about it and I’m hoping my kids get into Vanderbilt for college so I have more excuses to spend time there! On a recent trip I had fun exploring the Opryland Hotel where I tripped over this window for a restaurant they had in the hotel. Don’t you love it? Can’t you see this as a quilting design?
I like the birds, but that isn’t the part that drew my eye. Instead, I love the floral motif!
This central flower can be bent into so many things! Here’s a border idea and a triangle setting idea. Take a look at the shape and break out your sketchbook. What design ideas can you come up with? I also see a wonderful filler design in there. Do you see it? Let’s go play!

I appreciate how you not only showed us your inspiration (something I’ve seen many bloggers do), but also how to use it; how to apply it to quilting designs! It’s a nice little tutorial. Thank you.
