Here is an appliqued quilt that I quilted for Dee. It is so much more beautiful than the pictures. The colors that Dee chose are perfect, in fact you can almost smell the irises. I stippled behind the irises to make them stand out, quilted an iris in each cornerstone and finished up with feathers.

Your quilt is lovely. Irises are one of my favorite flowers.

I don't know how it can be much more beautiful than the pictures, because it's GORGEOUS in the photos!

Your quilt is so beautiful because it is so simple in design, so many quilts are too "busy" not saying that because it is simple in design it is not appreciated of the many hours that has gone into creating this lovely quilt.

Congratulations .
