Wool Applique Flower Baskets

I worked on these blocks off and on for the past year when i visited my sister. the pattern only had 6 baskets, so i made 2 of each, changing the colors of the flowers in the second set. it is 31x43".

The striped background is a flannel. the binding is something i had in the stash.

All hand stitched with wool.

I was just meandering large feathers around, but sometimes had to go in with a curl to fill in a space.

I was using up bits of batting that was kind of fat, so this is a pretty puffy wall hanging.
