Thank you both so much. I echo what the others have said plus more. I learned new ideas for example using a different thread color to highlight the trapunto work. I have watched it a couple of times. It is such a lovely quilt with so much detailed work. Wow!! I also really liked the idea of using muslin to stabilize the bias piecing. How very smart was that! Thanks again for doing this.

Oh my!!!!!! Thank you so much Lisa Walton and Margaret Gunn. Your quilt Margaret was indeed Magnificent and congratulations on the awards that you won for your work. I loved watching this video and look forward to Lisa making some more in the near future. You have inspired me to start thinking more about my quilts and the designs that I want to put in them. Thank to you both. This was so enjoyable to watch and a privilege.

Using the muslin backing to maintain and stabilize the final shape and size is GENIUS!
