Comments

My love for red or red and green quilts continues. Something about the color red just makes me feel good. This was my version of a "Baltimore Album" quilt. I worked on the applique over several years while working on other projects. It all came together eventually and the quilting, which was done using YLI silk thread, was completed as well.

Techniques

Hand Applique. Hand Embroidering. Machine Piecing. Machine Quilting.

Design Source

Various traditional patterns, many in the public domain, that I adapted using paper and pencil or using EQ
