Paradise is more out of reach than ever these days it seems, so why not use this project to create your own little slice right in your own home. There are plenty of options with this project—it is bordered in an oval frame and could be used as a centerpiece for a quilt, pillow, or handbag.
Click here to download the full project sheet PDF, which includes patterns for the poppies. The finished quilt is 16″ by 20″.
This project is an excerpt from Paradise Stitched—Sashiko & Appliqué Quilts by Sylvia Pippen, which includes 6 vivid quilts inspired by tropical flora and fauna.

Hello – do you know when you will be getting the newest version of the block tool? It contains 160 rotary cut blocks. I found one at my local quilt store but am so in love with it that I’m giving it away to my blog readers. So I need to replace mine and I can’t find one now. lol.
