Traditional Appliqué

This is Michelle Yeo’s latest design.  The pattern will be in September’s Quilter’s Companion.

I custom quilted the centre of the quilt with a small curl background fill, and ditch stitched the two inner borders, which made the centre the focus of the quilt. The remainder of the quilt had an allover freehand feather plume.  As this quilt was very large, having it part custom, part allover is a beautiful, but also cost effective way of having it quilted.
