Foliage Quilt

The 3rd Quilt I made was inspired by Lesley Riley and her Foliage fabric. I wanted to try a more challenging design and found a pattern from Simple Simon & Co. It had a complicated design, but by organizing my materials and following the pattern precisely, I was able to finish it. I love the way this quilt turned out.
