Hearts Desire

Exquisitely appliquéd, this stunning quilt was made by Wendy, and the design is by Esther Aliu called Hearts Desire.



Wendy’s quilt was a pleasure to quilt.  I quilted a background fill of small curls to make the appliqué pop. I also quilted feathers around some of the border, and around the centre block.  Some of the larger pieces of appliqué were outlined to anchor it.
