Round Robin #5 - Applique (or Rail Fence)

Welcome back to the Stay At Home Round Robin!  This week, it is up to our mastermind Gail of Quilting Gail what we add to our quilts.  And for the first time, there are two official options for your row!  Gail initially chose applique, and then later we added an option.  So you choose: applique or rail fence.

You may recall that after Wendy's signature block round, I left my corners open for this round.  It's not a big space, but I have room for some applique flowers.  I used a new-to-me Accquilt die that I got for Christmas to cut the flowers.  All fabrics are from Island Batik's Fancy Feathers collection; there is a dark turquoise in the collection that I used for the leaves.  

In preparation for our final round, I did add a border.  It finishes off this round nicely.
 

If you are sewing along, Gail has the linky this week for your applique or rail fence round.  And be sure to check out each of the hosts:
