Inspiration from Master Quilters

I borrowed "Quilting in the Limelight" by Philippa Naylor from the library. It is a terrific book of her quilting life and explorations into dyeing, machine quilting and colour. I am inspired to start on my daughter's promised quilt "Graduation". I found a sample we prepared and got stuck into it - machine applique, trapunto and machine quilting. I feel brave enough to tackle it now.
