Love the different reds and pink you used in the cherries and the greens in the leaves!!!

Thank you! I kinda made it up- drew it on graph paper. I got the cherry shape from a book, but then found it online. The link to the cherry picture is in one of the replies above. It's from a vintage embroidery pattern I believe.

And, yes, it is machine applique and going around the little bumps on the leaves was so time consuming! But I can't imagine trying it by hand.

And everyone else- thank you so much! I know if I post something here I will get lots of pats on the back. Feels good to hear it from people who understand how much work it was! :0)

Since my real name is Cherry, you know I LOVE your quilt! One of my sister-in-laws made me a queen size cherry quilt years ago and I still treasure it!
