Quilted wreaths can be made either with piecing or with applique. Here is one of the most beautiful of all quilted wreaths, made with dozens of appliqued 'feathers'. Janice Jones did an amazing job with this heirloom creation; we admire her excellent needleturn applique work.

Horse Feathers, made and quilted by Janice Jones
This quilt is made with needleturn applique. Janice Jones explains, "The title of the
quilt is from my dad, who muttered 'horsefeathers' in frustration.
Making each feather with tiny points, 'Horse Feathers' fit perfectly. Buttons were added for
holly berries and piping [was used] in the borders."
The pattern source is "Feather Fancy" by Cherry Guidry for Cherry Blossoms Quilts.
