Dala

Dala Horses with Anne Baxter

This is a lovely little quilt, created in fused applique.  Anne has designed it using the iconic Swedish Dala horse as her inspiration. She then uses the simple half-square triangle unit to create both the windmill blocks and the pieced zig-zag border in this delightful 9 block quilt, and there is clever use of some fabric to create the sashing.
