What an exciting adventure with Margaret this Sunday morning - a truly stunning quilt! The techniques and confidence and many longarm and hand stitch strides, using Radiance Silk-blend make this a winner in every way! Loved the shade tip for the berries! Thank you, Lisa!

Absolutely beautiful work. I too, love to work with silk. It seems to be more receptive to show stitch and glow so well.

[@LisaWaltonArtist]

Thank you! 😊

Did I miss it? Was there any discussion of batting? Did MSG use a special fabric or batting for the trapunto?
