Picture Appliqué

This stunning quilt belongs to Anthea.  She does gorgeous appliqué, which she pads for a beautiful 3D effect. 

This quilt was designed to depict the appliqué as though they were pictures on a wall. I quilted straight lines behind the appliqué ‘picture’, following the lines in the fabric to create the feeling of wallpaper.

    Wow! Anthea's applique is amazing. She doesn't have a blog, does she? I sure would love to know how she does the padding part.

    I'm quite impressed with the double quilting lines so close together!
