Default Art Deco Rose - Finally finished!

Well I did it - and I don't think I'll ever do a fusible applique again!!! My very first, very little instructions, so I machine applique stitched around each and every piece, then shadow quilted each and every piece. Board members were so very kind to give me encouragement and to assist me with ideas for quilting. Hand quilting in the blank squares and around the borders. I love hand quilting, but would like to learn machine quilting. My machine has a small neck so I don't think I'll be able to do much with larger quilts on my DSM. So - here it is and I couldn't have done it without you. Hopefully the pix will show up. The top pic is the back of the white square. BTW - I gave my new quilting guild - Santa Rosa Quilt Guild here in Florida this website and they put it in their newsletter, so we may get some new members. I just raved about you all and how willing you were to help and encourage.
