If I was trying to duplicate the original quilt, I would hand piece it. If I was just trying to make myself a reminder of it, I would applique it or find an iris pattern I liked. Those are the opinions of the poster and do not any way reflect those of the board or the world at large!--LOL!

It looks to me as if the original is hand applique.
