This quilt caught my eye and captured my heart from a book I've had for awhile. I finally got around to doing it. This is the first quilt I've done with a lot of applique, and I'm pretty pleased with how it came out. I just did straight-line quilting on my home machine. This is another scrap-buster--you'd think I'd be using these scraps up, but there doesn't seem to be any end to them!

I can see why that caught your eye. It is very pretty. Quite an accomplishment with all those little 9 patches and dthe applique.
