Here are some photos of the customer quilt I completed last week; it should be with its new owner now.
Such high-contrast colours were hard to photograph quickly, but it's a dramatic and very effective design. The red quilting on the plain white background squares helped soften it a little, and helped define the applique where it had plain black background.
I quilted closely around all the applique, and considered some feather quilting on the larger applique swirls, but decided it would detract from rather than add to them. I did quilt the centre though; a small feathered circle on the white, and echo quilting on the red and black petals.
