Cosmo Quail Quilt Pattern - An Arlene Walsh Design, Southwest Pattern, Fused Applique

Cosmo Quail - 16” x 17-1/2” 

Spunky and chunky, Cosmo the quail is ready to stroll the desert alone or in a famiy group. Not only is Cosmo Quail a pleasing project to complete, but the pattern also plays with the background dynamics using a simple collage technique. The patten image uses a variety of southwest scraps in the background. Of course you can choose to use floral scraps, solid color scraps, anything that strikes your fancy. Complete the design with a fused Cosmo the Quail and some decorative stitches to further individualize your artwork.
