Thanks so much for posting such a lovely quilt top for us to enjoy! :thumbup: :D :thumbup:

Correct, I have no artistic ability and didn't want to take a chance on ruining it, so i used the preprinted face and hands.

I am crazy about oriental designs. I ordered one. You will probably hear from me when I get stuck. Thanks for this site.

I'll be glad to help if I can.

It is all applique, used Steam a Seam (I believe that is what it is called). Aside from the spokes in the parasol, which I haven't done yet, and the frame, there is no sewing.
