I also love this 2nd one with the fabric yo-yo's ... at least that's what it looks like to me. Of course, it could be hand embroidery, but in real life, I don't think it would sustain use. The lace on the shoulders creates just the right balance between the opulence of the quilt and gemstones with the simplicity and elegance of lace.
This is perfect. Never mind what I said before, this is 100% my favorite. All the different emotions, things to do and the final result: a quilt which takes on a life of it's own. This has all the feeling, color, texture of a perfect quilter.
