Very pretty. I like this idea. Looks hard though.

Very nice job. I did one and not sure that I wll ever attempt another, however, I love the one I did accomplish, even with a "few" flaws. LOL

Yours sounds interesting. I would love to see it!!

The pattern was given out at my Friday quilt group. The lady made copies of the design for us.. She had it blown up to fit a 12 1/2" block... so it is sewn to a 15" block to be cut down later.

I would love to see yours and possibly trade patterns?? I am looking for more Celtic designs to do as well. I could purchase a book, but at the moment I am watching my pennies so to speak!

Beautiful!

Thank you everyone! I'm so pleased that the Celtic design is appreciated. I found it fun to do. I was in the beginning, intimidated by it, but that was before I actually dove in and gave it a go. Seriously it is not extremely hard, just time consuming to complete the hand applique`.
