Love it - is there a "sparkle" in some of the fabric of some flowers? Adds such a great sparkle & interest to it.

I did applique with a zigzag, then when you cover the edges with hot ribbon you can't see the applique threads. The flowers were quilted with Sulky Sliver metallic #145-8040. It seems to pick up the color of the fabric and just sparkle.
