Before she passed away in late 2017, she had contributed numerous bag, doll, toy, stitchery and quilt projects for publication, often in partnership with her sister Melanie, using the Melly & me brand name.

Meg’s Garden | Quilt 💐 Kellie Wulfsohn of Do Meg’s Garden | Quilt 💐

Kellie Wulfsohn of Don’t Look Now created a stunning piece with her sensational applique flowers, butterflies and ladybugs. You’ll be thrilled to learn that it’s not a difficult project.

Kellie employed a free-machine raw-edge applique technique and two thicknesses of batting to create her quilt, but if you prefer to stitch by hand, that will work just as well. No matter the method, your finished quilt will be a tour de force.
