Here's the process of making my quilt. This quilt is basically hand appliqued. The only embellishment is beading on the orange flowers. As construction progressed, I noticed that many of the green leaves and the bias tape in a polished cotton mint green appeared to be gray - just an optical illusion. As I was pleased with the overall look of the quilt, I made the decision to replace the mint green with a more true green cotton fabric. I have never remade such a large portion of a quilt before, but it was well worth it. This quilt was included in the exhibit, "In Full Bloom, 2013" at the Houston International Quilt Festival.
