Tea Leaves Quilt


 I should have posted this sooner. It is 100% done. The tea leaves were hand appliqued and everything else was done by machine. The leaf squares were great for travel, and went to Rome with me.

The top is done and ready for quilting -- based on Crabapple Hill's "Which Witch's Boot", it's reduced in size, a few colors changed, the blocks are rearranged, and the outside border is deleted. I'm delighted!
