| "Seeing cascades of Rhododendrons bursting out in the early spring is such a joy to me, I had to make a quilt dedicated to them. I think about them in the final winter months and can hardly wait to celebrate early spring weather with these beautiful flowers. In Central Oregon I can't grow them, so I made this quilt instead. I also wanted to do an antique crib quilt, but I enlarged and redesigned it to a queen bed."

The flowers and leaves are hand appliqued onto a background of white muslin. Many early American quilts were made in this style. It is all hand appliqued and hand quilted with shell pattern in the center. Backing is beige cotton |
