Dragonflies and Iris quilted by feline fanatic
Tealfalcon's Pumpkin Pie quilted by Feline Fanatic


These two are double batted plus a trapunto type treatment:
Blue Heron wall hanging
Toni Whitney Blue Heron wallhanging

This one is double wool
Gail's Heron Pond Quilted by Feline Fanatic

And this one is double wool plus trapunto treatment also done with wool
Quan Yin - A show quilt



When I don't double, I prefer to use a heavier batting so it hangs better like W&N, Quilters Dream cotton or 80/20.
