My challenge piece is called Peridot and Poppies for my August birthday. It measures 23 inches square and is machine applique and free motioned quilted on a hand dyed piece of fabric. Peridot dress is made up of petals cut from the flowers.
“Sunflowers”. Emerald is the birthstone for May and I discovered that Sunflowers are one of the many flowers for that month.
This quilt was completed all by hand: hand appliqued, hand embroidered to accent, and hand quilted with long stitching.
