Appeal

Appeal was juried into Quilt Canada 2021.

This quilt is titled Appeal and features the orange peel motif.

To get this quilt started I pieced together these colourful orange peel shaped units and auditioned two different background colours and ended up going with white. After making my quilt sandwich, I sewed a 5 inch grid to help keep everything lined up.

I then pinned and glue basted the entire design in place, and then did all of the quilting. To remove the glue baste, I washed Appeal in warm water and tumbled dried on medium heat which created the beautiful-soft frayed edge that is signature within the Hover-quilting technique.
