Susan McCord was a pretty amazing quilt designer! Janet Treen made a fantastic pattern! And I had hours and hours of fun appliqueing leaves to make this quilt. I'm a bit sad to be done but I know I will enjoy each leaf again when I handquilt this top.
It's a large top - difficult to photograph inside - so I waited for a nice day to take some outside shots. (quilt holder #2 is a cutie pie - DS really had to reach to hold it up off the ground :0)
I'm excited at all the possibilities for my next applique project. I know I want to start another big project. This top was 4 years in the making and that's just fine. I enjoy the process :0)
Happy Quilting!!

It looks amazing - so nicely done! I have so many projects in the works but they all seem to go into rotation, and get finished eventually! Looking forward to seeing what project you work on next!
I have been away from my computer for so long I missed commenting on your beautiful finish.
There must be a gazillion leaves on this quilt. Amazing finish.
I love it! The way it looks, I love to sleep with it because the color pink nailed it.
