As promised (many weeks ago), a picture of my Fanciful Flowers quilt from the book Material Obsession. I love the way it turned out.

I still need to stitch the seeds onto the flowers, but decided to wait until after it is quilted–I made tiny yo-yos rather than applique pieces–love the dimension it will give the quilt when it’s all done!

I think I’ve decided to hand-quilt this baby. I went back and forth between hand and machine quilting–but in the end, I decided I loved the way it looks in the book–hand quilted! I haven’t hand quilted anything for a long time, but I love to do it. Looking forward to the challenge!
