This is Block #1 of Kathleen’s wool applique quilt. As I have mentioned previously Kathleen chose “Bloomin Beauties” pattern from Kim Schaefer’s Flower Festival book for this project. So, let’s begin. The background is a heavy black flannel and all the wool is hand dyed wool. Kathleen started with a patterned wool for the leaves…
For those of you who have been following my blog you may remember I experimented with wool applique last year only to discover I have a sensitivity to wool, something I should have remembered from childhood as I never buy wool clothing.

As many of you likely already know my journey into needlework began about ten years ago when I developed an interest in crazy quilting. I had never done any hand stitching prior to this time and honestly never considered I would but as they say “never say never”. I started dyeing my threads for personal…
