"Garden Flowers" Appliques

 I did it! The flower appliques are on.
I used Wonder Under to fuse the appliques to the quilt.
I'm also going to stitch around the edge of each flower and center.
 The flowers really add to the overall look of the quilt.
Again, I LOVE the colors! 
Now, for the trim. :)

If you're just tuning in, I'm making this quilt for my dear friend, Tawnya.
She is an amazing writer. Her blog is: Drawn to the Flame. You should go check it out!

    1. Aw, thanks, I hope so :) I spread it out on our bed (King) and it drapes over about 6 inches on each side.... should I try to squeeze on one more row? (I *might* have enough fabric -- let me check ). It would be another 12" wide or long ? Do you want to come see it? or I could bring it to you to check on your bed before I put the trim on. Can you tell I'm excited??? :) love ya!

    2. No, a 6ish inch drape is good. And I wouldn't be able to come see it until sometime next week, so I trust you!

    1. Thanks, Maggie, I'm still not the best quilter, but if I've got a pattern to follow I can usually figure it out. :)

  3. I' with Maggie, very impressive! I so need to come and see your method for the applique. Mine method pretty much stinks. BUt that's a tale for another day.
