Blue Dogwood 60" X 60"

Do you ever pick up a piece of fabric and can feel it calling out to you? I felt this way when I saw Michael Miller’s Collection called “Dogwood”. The colours in it were stunning, the flower inspiring, and the repeat pattern was striking. From the minute I saw the fabric, my creative juices started flowing and ideas were pouring out of me. One of these ideas materialized into the appliqué block that is seen in this quilt. I loved creating this block and loved combining both appliqué and stitchery (embroidery) to make it stand out.

This appliqué floral quilt is a simple two block quilt joined by sashing and two outer borders. This quilt would be beautiful in Japanese floral prints and would add a special touch to any room.

I can imagine many more colour combinations and fabric combinations for this quilt. I already have fabrics that I would use to make another one, if time would allow. This quilt would be so beautiful using a Japanese floral print for the border. Once you find a border print that you love, the colours for the other blocks will be found easily.

I know you will enjoy making this quilt – and I hope that as you make it, your creative juices will flow as well.
