Such a beautiful quilt. You must have lots of patience to spend that many hours on applique. Very, very nice.

I will mock up a couple of blocks and play with it for a while to decide. I promised last night I would post a pic today, so here she is. Excuse the other things pinned on the design wall along with it, just some pieces for a friend

You have done a wonderful job. What patience and ability you have. It is beautiful design as well. I know that I would never achieve such perfection with applique. I find it very difficult indeed, but admire what others, like yourself, can do. Thank you for showing it to us!

Ooooh. Quilting that would be fun! It's beautiful. I love quilting applique and sampler quilts. Each block has a different challenge. Have fun.
