*First Place* Where the Flowers is by Mary Kay Davis of Sunnyvale, California

Mary Kay's entry has this center flower applique, surrounded by a checkerboard and other applique flowers and grass corners.

When Mary Kay saw the challenge pack, all she could think of was a silly poem from her well-read mother: Spring has sprung The grass has 'riz I wonder where The flowers is?

On the back, you can see the smooth quilting.
