Oh, do I ever have another gorgeous quilt to share!!! It is actually a quilt that I quilted last year…Aug/Sept.
Applique Affair by Edyta Sitar. A wool on flannel version. This gorgeous quilt was beautifully appliqued by Yvette of BOM Quilter blog. Yvette did an amazing job!! I have always loved Applique Affair. This version is my all time favorite because of the wool. I was so nervous to quilt it. I didn’t have any experience with quilting applique or wool…heck I didn’t have that much experience quilting in general at the time!!! LOL!!! Yvette left the quilting up to me, so I decided I would create lots of texture and movement by adding a wavy echo around the applique.
I love how the quilting added movement, but really let the applique pop!! I like how the continuous quilting made the background look like one piece. I used Hobbs Wool, which I think really gave the quilting a lot of definition.
I couldn’t decide which applique block was my favorite…they all were!!
I have to admit this quilt looked right at home at my house! 🙂
Before quilting.
You could really see the texture of the quilting on the back. Beautiful. I used a cream So Fine Thread top and bobbin.
I am so happy Yvette loves her quilt. I do too. 🙂
