Description:
Lilies was made by Barbara in a class with Judy Simmons where Judy taught her students how to microwave dye fabric. So the flowers are made out of a fat quarter that Barbara microwave dyed purple and then cut into flower shapes afterward. Once put together, like most of her earlier quilts, Barbara then appliquéd and hand quilted the piece to bring it all together.
