Very pretty-it's such a happy block. I think you did a really good job for your first applique. I have never used silk thread, does it feel any different to work with?
I feel like silk thread slides through the fabric more easily and is less noticeable than hand quilting thread or other threads.

I like your fabric and color combinations. Looks Rustic to me..and I love rustic. Im still auditioning fabrics for this block. I'm having trouble deciding. I love this block so much I am thinking about making one and substituting it for one of the blocks in the quilt Im working on for my grandaughter. Again wonderful block Hopetoquilt. :thumbup:

Very nice, HopetoQuilt...You're braver than I am, lolo - I always do applique by machine, using different stitches, depending on the item I'm appliquing. Kudos to you..:thumbup:

Here is my version of April Tulips. I want my quilt to be all paper pieced, so I selected a pattern from Carol Doak. It is actually called May Flowers.
