This is a pieced and appliquéd quilt using many different fabrics. The center of the quilt is a good focus point surrounded by cross blocks. The pieced border was added to repeat some of the flowers. The appliqué was done using the Apliquick method. The center is a large square cut into four equal sections and the twelve small blocks were appliquéd using the Apliquick method. Cross blocks were added. To finish the quilt, she added an appliqué border pieced of different fabrics. It took two years to complete.
