Beautiful, how do you color in your flowers and leaves. Do you paint them, or do free motion on them?

I first did the quilting and then I used fabric markers to color in the leaves and flowers. Next I did additional stitches with a variety of thread on top of the painted areas. The background and border quilting was the last step.

Did you paint or applique your design first? It is quite eye catching.
