This author did so much work to determine the best way to quilt fibers other than quilter's cotton. The results are gorgeous!
I liked her instructions on making "dividend units" from your scraps and putting them into even MORE beautiful projects.

Colorful additions of textiles to quilts using wool, silk, cotton and home decorator fabrics and the methods of adding and stabilizing the additions to conventional quilt materials. Loved her quilting designs that she used.
