Happy Australia Day!
This is a long term project file in which I am trying to design a quilt in the style of the Baltimore quilts but with an Australian theme, but I keep adding borders so it is more a medallion quilt. The hardest part is finding background fabrics to use in a large country which has green edges but an interior which features many shades of dirt!

I do like the basket of Australian flora as the centre piece.
Well done Judy. I really like the first one.

Nola,
Thank you. I had one of those moments when I see clearly now when I was selecting designs for this post … I need way more Aussie flora designs to play with, including botanical style drawings, wreaths etc. One more excuse for playing with applique blocks designs.

I really like the second one with so many different appliques there is a lot to keep looking at. The first one is great too as the applique pieces are definitely bigger and would be easier to do.

Cindy,
Thank you.
The second one is easier to see but I used the same block size so it is little more than a table topper as designed, BUT it could easily be made with much larger blocks to become a king size quilt!
