This quilt is comprised of just two fabrics: a natural ground calico with madder-dyed leaves and a madder ground calico with black and white circles. The backing is a stripe in madder, beige and natural; the backing is turned to the front to form the binding. All work on this quilt is by hand. The quilting is diagonal quilting in the opposite direction of the connecting blocks. This quilt has terrific graphics! This quilt has been professionally hand washed by Betsey.
