Description:

Petal Paradise combines appliquéd orange peels with pieced cornerstones in a 78 inch square quilt. Wendy Sheppard designed this intermediate project with In Motion fabrics, using a dark background between the petal blocks and the surrounding patchwork. The orange peels are fussy cut from a printed fabric and attached with raw-edge appliqué. Alternating petal and cornerstone rows form the center, enclosed by a narrow border, a pieced border and a final outer border.
