whew what a lot of work this one was! I'm so excited though this is my 1st applique quilt and it was alot of fun. I can already tell there will be many more :) I am stressing though about how to quilt it. I might just do some stippling around the applique so I don't have to go through them... some of them are pretty thick! What do you think is that a good idea?

Beautiful. Another alternative is to echo quilt.

You beat me to that one, Lesley. That was my thought too. Great minds and all that stuff. :lol:

Great job! I also would echo quilt it.

If the applique is really thick, I would stipple around the designs. It makes the design really stand out. For me echo quilting is hard, especially with small spaces around your applique designs. Beautiful quilt.

beautiful work!

Beautiful
