Purple and yellow quilt

I've been working on my purple and yellow 12x12 quilt this week. I did the machine quilting today.
Here's a little preview of the top...
This is the back of the quilt...
Tomorrow, I'll begin with the hand quilting.
And this is a daisy print which didn't work out very well, so I'm using it as a sample to test my stitching...

Now, I'm thinking of using this nice piece of dyed fabric to make a second purple quilt. But I just saw that there is a crease where the colour faded a bit...
And these are fabrics I plan to use in my turquoise quilt. I've put them on my desk so I can think about it when I'm tired of seeing purple and yellow ...

Hi - Your blog is wonderful! The purple creased piece may be just a great spot to put an embellishment!
