    this was part of a series of folded fabric quilts - very artistic and wonderful. the ones done in plain muslin were especially nice.

    the one that looks like crochet, but isn't, is layers of fussycut fabric cut in sequential circles on top of each other, and then handstitched in large basting stitches around the circles.

    very, very creative.
