Blooms in Spring

This quilt was made as a wedding present for my granddaughter and her new husband when they married in May 2013. Her favorite color was pink and his favorite was orange so I tried to incorporate those colors in the quilt by means of the appliqued tulips, border and backing. In piecing the background for the flowers, I tried to coordinate the jelly roll strips color-wise to simulate the ground from where the flower blooms and the sky from sunrise to night. I quilted it with a serpentine stitch and a heart in each corner.
