Default Maple Leaves....quilted by Charisma
Brenda sent this quilt to me for LAQ. This is pieced and needle turned applique..aren't those vines beautiful?!

B made this for her daughter's wedding quilt..her SIL is Canadian so she requested that I quilt some maple leaves in the quilt somehwere..so I used bigger maple leaves all around the borders and vines.

I love the fall appeal of this quilt and the bright green that gives it some WOW! Great Job Brenda!

What a great job both of you have done. The quilting really makes the applique stand out. That pattern in the applique is called tobacco leaves isn't it? I love how the quilting has given the quilt such nice texture. Her color choices with the browns really made the green stand out. A lovely quilt.
