Brown Bag Challenge

In our local crazy quilt group we just finished up a brown bag add a border  challenge.  There were 2 groups one that had 4 people in it and one that had 3.  Well  we challenged ourselves if we wanted to do something that we never tried before.  This is Delores Quilt.  She did the very center; then Linda did the next round up into the 1: checkerboard round and then I did the last round. What I did was painted leaves with the Lumiere paints and then stitched around the leaves.  I liked the process the only thing is you have to make sure that the person will not be washing the piece and that it will  be a wall hanging or table topper because then you will ruin the paint.  Here is a pic of the leaves:
