Oriental 3 D Baltimore

The idea of 3 D applique is continued in the quilt which has another block of the month with an Asian theme. There were lots of new techniques to be learnt in creating the blocks. I chose a black background to set off the brilliant colours in the blocks and then white sashings as a foil to each square. The quilting is machine done but the blocks are all hand appliqued using the various methods that came with the pattern.
