I've done several of Karen Stones quilts but not Cinco yet. Hugs
There's no applique in this one. It's a New York Beauty type. Mine took me 6 months to piece together, another month to decide the final placement of the blocks, tearing some blocks apart and remaking them w/ different fabric in the arcs. Then a couple weeks to fmq and sitd. I made it in 2 sections, then sewed them together by hand on the back. I'll see if I have a photo of it somewhere.
