Poppies and more poppies. Rich robust reds combined with earthy greens and a cozy plaid. Aged in an oak cask, particle board shelves in a couple different large closets for years maybe a decade or two before they were planted and bloomed. The stark white of the backing contrasts greatly with the front of the quilt but it seemed the appropriate place for the fabric. Does that sound like I have been consulting wine labels? Echo quilting around the flowers, still thinking about the stepping stones and borders. —Ann—

I love this quilt. I look forward to hopefully seeing the whole thing when you finish. The poppies are lovely.
I went back to some of your older posts and saw the whole poppy quilt. It is just so satisfying to view. Nice color placement and accent.
I love your description! :) But not as much as this quilt.
