Paper Piecing Dragons... :)

« on: December 17, 2011 01:16:02 PM »

Hi! I don't post on Craftster near as much as I should or would like to.. my mother just finished this quilt a few weeks ago. She paper pieced all of the dragons using a pattern from Paper Panache. I think it's beautiful, but it took her a long time! This was for my dad, who loves dragons and the color blue..

It is magnificent.

Lovely, and I really like that the quilting is like dragon scales. The amount of time and work is beautifully evident!
