My Piece for the Quilt Show

My Guild was having a show this past weekend. Kawartha Quiltmakers. There was a fabric challenge where you were to make a mini quilt no more than 20X20 using some of the fabric in the challenge ( the beige with the leaves, butterflies and bumble bees). The theme was "Memories in Stitches".

I lost my dear little brother when he was almost seven. I wanted to make a small crazy quilt in his honour.

I "like" my piece but I don't "love" it.  I used the fabulous book by Allie Aller as a guide to developing my piece but I didn't leave myself enough time to study it during the process.

I think that if I had it up on a design wall I would have seen that it needed, and planned  it out better  I like the upper right corner where the fabric curves and i think that I should  have continued on in that theme. Also I should have used a stabilizer under the photo collage, is to loosey goosey.

I would appreciate all of the feedback you can provide me so that I can get better at this.
Tomorrow I will put some photo's up of the show.
