This was my first quilt made with ideas from "One-of-a-Kind Quilts" by Judy Hopkins. I was inspired by some new purple and yellow iris fabric bought at People's Place in Lancaster, PA. The tulip pattern was from a quilt magazine. I finished it during the '92 Winter Olympics. On a visit to Darrel, we took 3 quilts and let him choose. This was his pick. He is an avid flower gardener.
