The first one took my breath away. Just beautiful, and it was nice to see the trapunto.

The small triangles on the second are so intricate. The design is deceptive at first. You really have to look closely to see how special this on is.

Barnraising quilts always impress me, and look at the cone borders! Gorgeous materials.
