Mint Chocolate Child's Quilt

Doesn't the colors of this quilt remind you of mint chocolate chip icecream? I don't know how I managed to quilt it without eating some. I love the artwork in the blocks of this quilt. I stitched this quilt with brown thread. I quilted around each of the pictures, trying to follow the outline as closely as possible. The first two borders were quilted with standing loops, and the striped border, I just did straight lines in some of the stripes. The polka-dot border has a cicle loops and the outer border has a flower, leaf combo.
