Year of Floral quilts

   In 2015, I began the journey I described as The Year of Florals.  The intent was to explore traditional patterns that could feature floral fabrics.  Along the way I wanted to  see what happened with the use of value and placement, and hopefully put a dent into my floral stash.    It is now 2 years later, and I am still exploring.  By grouping the quilts here, maybe I can inspire others!   Details are available in the blog post for each quilt.  Check the archive for the correct post.
