Really beautiful. In fact, really beautiful doesn't begin to compliment you on your work. I have only done a couple of simple applique projects. I can't see any of your applique stitches. Did you hand applique? You have excited me to try some.
If she did it the way McKenna does it, it is all fused on and then machine stitched around the edges of the pieces. Hundreds of pieces in this block.
