The quilt in my avatar is a whole cloth quilt I made to raise money for a crippled Italian Greyhound recently. It's actually a 100%cotton sheet, in a pattern that I fell in love with. I quilted around all of the mums in the design. I did applique an Italian Greyhound and frame it, but otherwise, it is a whole cloth quilt. the first one I ever made. And I will definitely do more.
