I thought the flowers were appliqued also. Tho I am not technologically advanced enough to copy and enlarge a photo on my own :} I'm learning alot from you all. I have a cell phone camera I just only yesterday found the down-load menu on it and today I found the menu for printers and camera's on the computer. tomorrow PICTURES????? OH ! Yea the poppies. they are lovely I have an Idea for a quilt w/ sunflowers and poppies. Don't think It woulsd be to difficult to create an applique pattern. But, when I'm stymied I go to places like Michaels and browse. (I've done a little painting I found some cool pattern ideas for quilts in the glass painting pattern dept.)
