I never knew appliqué could be like this.
This quilt by Kim McClean really takes it to a whole other level, doesn’t it?
To add to the awesomeness, this whole quilt was done by hand.
You can, if you think you have the patience and staying power, buy the pattern and the fabrics to make your own version of the quilt here.
I don’t think I’ll be doing that. I couldn’t – and wouldn’t want to – replicate someone else’s work.
But it is just amazing. ♥
She’s astonishing, isn’t she? I think my favourite of her designs is Lollipop Trees, it’s fun and spontaneous. Less intimidating too, if you realise that the job is broken down into individual blocks which are joined together later. You just do lots of little applique projects!
I think I’m most astonished by the sheer volume of work she manages to complete – all those tiny hand stitches! Each quilt looks like a lifetime’s work!
Beautiful – thanks for showing!
Thanks you just gave me an idea for a border.
