    This is the latest quilt I've quilted for my cousin - a fabulous piecer. She used lots of wool applique and I love the colors and designs she used. To quilt this, I used wool batting and different background fills behind all of the applique blocks. That was fun to do. I took more pics, but most turned out blurry. Thanks for looking.

    Truly beautiful...that is one of the nicest tree of life designs I've seen. The wool really does give it a different look and dimension, doesn't it? Your quilting is just great, you have really done justice to the quilt. Thanks so much for sharing your family's talents.
