Jeparit Jewels 9, 10 from Virtual Quilter

I looked and looked for several minutes until I worked out what was different about the first design.

Finally worked out. It has 36 blocks   … an even number across and vertically … something I rarely do in real or virtual designs.

I left my favourite  until last today!

There is space for 25 applique blocks, but I left four of them blank for the quilting to shine, though there is a lot of space in the applique blocks in this design for the quilting to show.

Jeparit Jewels 7, 8 from Virtual Quilter

My fabric choices in this project file started with the busy pansy print. Then I added some not quite plain fabrics in colours featured in the pansies, and then chose a neutral background.

The second design is a bit busy for me, though perhaps it might look OK on a queen size bed.

The quilting as shown would be in a contrast colour to the background, but what is not shown is a filler in thread to match the background. Stippling would be my first choice, but small circles, or a simple grid would work too.
