Allover Leaves

This is another one of Janet Sansom’s lovely embroidery quilts.  I normally custom quilt Janet’s quilts, but this time we decided to do an allover leaves and loop pattern.

As I quilt freehand, it was easy for me to quilt around the embroidery, and I also ditch stitched the stems of each embroidered flower.
