Fresh New Attitude

Becky Goldsmith machine-quilted a variety of straight lines, zigzags, and loops in the leaf appliqués. She filled in the quilt center and outer border backgrounds with floral motifs and stitched a flower design in each circle appliqué. In the inner border she stitched three rows of parallel lines spaced about 3⁄8" apart.

See the whole quilt here.
