Photo of Rachael Ray and her Pit Bull, Isaboo.
Jan made this portrait quilt of Rachael Ray and her beloved Pit Bull, Isaboo, and sent it to Rachael as a gift.

This is when images imprinted on fabric are cut out and appliquéd to the quilt. Jan did this so the flowers on the borders would not look cut off, so they hang over onto the green background. Dimensions - 27" square
