So with a bit of piecing and some simple appliqued leaves these blocks were formed. The plain blocks will be quilted with feathered wreaths, so it will be very traditional. I will wait for fall to start this one, but it will be hard since this will be a fun one to quilt.
It's a beautiful quilt and it will really be special with lovely hand quilting. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love peonies as well and your quilt is gorgeous I also love red and green quilts.
ReplyDeleteI have the reds too along the back of my yard and I will let you know that they dry lovely if you want them all year round they look like roses, but only the reds look the best dried.
I had never tried to dry them. Down here in Arkansas we dry the hydrangeas. FYI, Betweens I ordered the digital Fons and Porter June 2011 issue after I saw your finished basket of flowers quilt. Hopefully I can start it next year have a few more WIPs to complete.
DeleteBeautiful! I love peonies too!
