Description:
Mark's two kids are in the quilt as butterflies and Mark is in the quilt as a frog. He told his kids as a joke, "If you don't behave, I'm going to eat you..." Mark spent many months working on the turned edge appliqués, quilting, and fills. He even added a few Swarovski crystals for highlights. Poppy's Rainbow won 1st Place, Large Wall Quilts: Longarm / Midarm Machine Quilted - Paducah 2013 and also took Best of Show at the World Quilt Show - Florida IV.
