Moonpi, Funny I didn´t notice the art noveau look of it till you mentioned it. Well spotted.
Gcathie, it wasn´t hard to cut out, there were excellent patterns in this book it was cut out and placed on the material over a weekend. But getting round to doing the rest seemed to take forever.
Thank you evryone for your lovely comments they are so much appreciated. :D :D Elle

The book we worked from is called 'Art Nouveau Quilts for the 21st century' by Bea Oglesby, if you search on google images you can see the cover of the book which is the original pattern I got my inspiration from, I changed it quilt abit, leaves flowers 3D etc. :D
