    What an amazing quilt! It really reaches the heart. Your son will love it. Is it your own design?

    Thank you! Yes they are appliques, I downloaded simple clipart outlines and enlarged them and then cut them out. all sewn onto quilt top by machine blanket stitch and then SID once the quilt was loaded onto my longarm.
