Flourish on the Vine

Luxurious, intricate details offer a challenge for experienced quilters, and comprehensive instructions make it approachable for ambitious beginners. For this heirloom-quality quilt, the vines and branches were inspired by wrought ironwork, and the bordering swags were imagined from festoons of fruit, as seen in Roman Empire temples. Make the quilt as shown, or mix and match the elements to create a unique design! Kathy gives readers plenty of preparation guidelines to ensure success, whether they use her needle-turn method or choose a different applique technique. Full-size pattern sheets included.
