Background Done

For this block, at least. There's plenty more background quilting to do, but I won't be doing any such time-consuming work on the other blocks. I used Lori Kennedy's Grid Pop design, but doing it around appliqué was slow work:
The top photo is with the flash, which flattens it out. Below without the flash:
A bit indistinct due to camera movement, but you can see the textural effect of the quilting. And you can also see that the foreground is going to need a bit of work.

    That looks fantastic! I know it was time consuming but the effect is well worth it.

    The quilting looks marvelous. I can't imagine how much time it took to do it.

    Love your work. You did an excellent job on the background on that basket. FMQ like that is very time consuming but rewarding. thanks for sharing.

    Congratulations you achieved a great quilting job. Your basquet is so cute and I love that Lori Kennedy's grid pop. I used it too while studying FMQ with her doodling lessons
