Looking at the close-ups of the various flowers and other parts of your quilt, I am amazed. The fabrics you chose are certainly challenging to use, esp. for applique. And on this bizarre weather day (we woke up to snow on 9/29!), the thought of a lovely fragrance in the air from May blossoms is a delight.

Beautiful.
