Wellesley Free Quilt Pattern by Lisa DeBee Schiller
Description:
Wellesley by Lisa DeBee Schiller combines appliqued wreaths and vines, hexagon flowers and pieced stars in a 52 by 57 inch quilt. Three large wreath blocks share the setting with smaller flower and vine units and six star blocks. Bias stems and individual leaves form the applique, while the hexagon flowers are basted around paper shapes and whipstitched together. The blocks are joined in sections, then surrounded by a narrow inner border and a wider floral border.
