Springtime Flowers

Another quilt finished!! I had gotten so behind on finishing projects that it is a great feeling to finish another.  I started this quilt back in the spring – it is hand appliqued and hand quilted.  I have 2 more finished tops that need to be quilted, another on the frame that is half way quilted and three quilt tops in progress.  I’m not sure how it is that I started so many, normally I only work on 2 or 3 at a time.

The finished product:

Beautiful…. I am very fond of strippy type quilts. That blue is a perfect backdrop for the flower colours. Did you invisible stitch? I especially like the flowers on the corners.

Love your quilt. Oh my hand done too in such a short time. Amazing work, I have too much pain in my hands to do handquilting, but I sure do admire it.

It’s really wonderful. Wish I could see the variegated quilting better. It sounds like it would be very pretty with that great blue color!
