Athena's Flowers 2

During my apparent blogging hiatus, I've been working on a second version of Athena's Flowers. The comments I received on that quilt were the most complimentary group of comments I had ever received, so I decided to make one for the shop.


This time, I quilted it the way I wanted to quilt the first one, with stipples in the background, but not over the flowers. 


With this being only my second attempt at stippling, it's not exactly perfect, but it is sooo much better than my first one. I'm very happy with it. 

Poor Athena seemed to get very confused at seeing a quilt like hers at my house:)

The stats are the same - all Kona cotton, 50" x 60", Warm & White batting. 


And the shop has been updated if you're interested. 

Linking up to Crazy Mom Quilts for Finish it Friday.

  8. I love it - everything about it. Daisies are so pretty. I'm not surprised you made 2 - it's a fabulous design. I'd love a cushion with this for the sofa.
