Original Quilt Designs. Part 5
Iris Applique QuiltSome like to piece, while others prefer applique, and then
there's embroidery, but whatever your choice you should get the thrill of making a quilt.
The iris applique is assured of success because the design is so lovely, and yet it is not
intricate to make. Orchid and deeper violet, two values of green, darker for the leaves
and a bit of orange embroidery make the blocks. It is set together in an unusual manner
with narrow strips of green and small orange squares at each intersection, alternate
blocks plain to allow for fancy quilting. A quilting pattern of a conventional iris
spaces beautifully on the half and quarter blocks.Iris Applique Quilt
Let's Make a Pansy QuiltThe Pansy Quilt is pieced of lavender and violet with a
bright little center in yellow and green. Sixteen pieced blocks with alternating white
squares are enough for even a full sized quilt if borders are added as suggested in the
small sketch.
