Hand quilted and hand appliquéd.

Whole cloth quilts are difficult to get good pictures of, but this quilt is stunning.

Forever in My Heart
by Lahala Phelps, Utah

This quilt was made in memory of her mother. It is hand appliquéd and hand quilted.

You can see here that Forever in My Heart has a little mini twin, at least in color if not in design :)  I love miniatures!

Here is a close up of the mini twin:

Dutch Flower Pots

"The artist appliqués his exotic, intricate design to a fine cotton background on a large piece of canvas.  He stitches with a thread length of two to three feet long, turning the edges of the fabric under with his needle. Fattoh often works 14 hours a day in his shop, as it's the sole means of his livelihood."
