"Flower Shadows" That is what I called this one. I started this quilt 2 months ago and finally got it finished. Some how got side tracked . (I seem to do that a lot lately, lol.)
It was easy to make, course I love doing applique.
First, I dug into my stash of Batiks and made 3 1/2" X 6 1/2" strips. For each strip I made 3 flower petals of the same fabric.
Then cut the same amount of white strips (same size) as I had Batiks.
Next, I sewed a white strip to each Batik. Then sewed 4 together to make a block. I then arranged my flowers onto the block, trying to keep them all even, and machine appliqued them on using Monofilament thread.
Next I arranged my blocks and sewn them all together. I added a multi colored Batik boarder.
Then quilted it in an all over random pattern.
Total size is, 66" X 78"
I am trying to get some of my UFO's finished. I have this problem of coming up with too any idea at one time. Course, how many is too many, right?
To me,
It's all in having fun!
HAPPY QUILTING EVERYONE!!
i love your appliqué quilt!!!. .
