Another Quilt from Jan

Jan, the creator of the beautiful quilt in my last post, also sent along this little quilt that she made for a friend. It was so simple and sweet, that I decided to quilt it that way as well.

I followed the lines in the fabric to create a plaid effect in the background, accented the sunflower and created feathers on the bird. Simple quilting, but anything else would have overpowered the quilt, making it so you noticed the quilting and not the quilt.

My favorite part...the back. Here you can see the feathers in the bird's wing as well as the "seeds" in the sunflower.
