Appliqué and Embroidery

DSC00023

DSC00024I love the look of applique and embroidery together, don’t you?  These are a few close-ups that were requested by one of my Facebook friends in the group Amazing Appliqué.  They are from my quilt “Floral Star of Bethlehem.”  

These aren’t the greatest photos, but they show four different parts of the quilt.  I wish I had a wall large enough to hold this quilt.  Alas, I don’t, and it sits on a shelf in the closet collecting dust.  Maybe someday! DSC00022 DSC00021

  2. You have hit upon one of my favorite combinations -- applique and embroidery. Perhaps that's why I'm always drawn to Baltimore and Crazy quilts. Beautiful work!

  3. Beautiful Caron! Just out of curiosity, was that quilt hand-quilted?
