quilted comfort

  
The Leaves Galore Applique Template was used to design this quilt.  
Very little fabric is required and it can be worked up quickly.  
There are several ways to place the petals, these are placed on the diagonal.  

When the back is flannel, the design is cozy and pretty.


This will be gifted as a comfort quilt.

 Remember chintz?

It's out of the closet and onto the bed.


I call this type of quilting rescue quilting.  
The client had basted this top for hand quilting and left it sitting for 30 years.

I took it apart and quilted it using a cozy poly batt.  The puffy batt gives it loft and a contemporary look.  




The back is an inexpensive muslin but, gives it a pretty whole cloth look.


As simple as this quilt is, it's one of my favorites of the year.
