Blooming Prickly Pear Cactus

I made this for my brother and his wife who are "Snow Birds" in Arizona during the winters in Minnesota. I ventured outside my comfort zone of traditional quilts to make this landscape quilt. No rules were needed here. I used paint, fused fabric, machine embellishments and free motion quilting to complete the quilt.
