Lil' Twister quilt with applique

I continue to really like the Lil' Twister template and made this quilt in a type of Around the World pattern. Then I added some appliqued flowers to add some color. I have more pictures on my blog. I would post more but I think they are too big to post here.

Love the look! Just made one of these and ready to start the second one. Great idea on different color way! Thanks!!!

Oh my, that is pretty!! Great work. I have the templates and am waiting until I move to start anything ... but darn, its getting harder to wait!

I love your colors. Did you use a pattern. I made one with the lg twister and my color combination was awful.... wondering how you made yours... Really like it

Very pretty! Lots of nice blue color and the background scene really sets it off. Did you drive it all the way down to the water just to take the picture? Makes me feel lazy hanging mine on a clothesline in the basement when I need to take a pic. Ann in TN

I made up my own pattern to use the fat quarters I had in that grouping and used my Sizzix for the flowers.
I did a quick sketch in EQ7 also.

Very pretty. I really like the Lil Twister too. I am making the Christmas tree right now.

Stunning and beautifully styled....beats my usual thing of draping over the bed or holding up with my shoes poking out.
