This is absolutely gorgeous. I have some batik that was hand-dyed in Tanzania by a woman's group. I've had it for a couple of years trying to decide what to use it for. You have just given me an idea. Too bad I don't embroider.

When I first saw the picture of the quilt, I thought that was the fabric you had. When seeing the close up pictures, I am curious, did you do this applique or outline pictures on the fabric? No matter which it was, your work is beautiful and this is an amazing quilt.

What a work of art and what a work of love it must have been as there is such a wealth of work put into this quilt.

Everything was machine applique and embroidered - the machine did all the work of outlining and telling me where to put what!
