Wednesday 19th March

Hello again, I have been finishing off a couple of quilts started last year, finally have them in the sewing machine to quilt.  So I will have photos soon of finished quilts.  In the meantime I have added some photos of fabrics I picked up at the airing of the quilts in Braidwood last year. there is a fabulous shop there called "The Fabric Shop" which is very funky I will use these for my next project I think...

Well hello again its been head down and tail up to finish a quilt commissioned for an 80th birthday present.  Requested was a lap size quilt, pink and green floral shabby chic style. 

 

 

 

Although shabby chic is not my usual style, I am happy with the fabrics I choose for this quilt, some bought and some from my stash.  I added a darker pink border and dark green backing as requested as this quilt is going to get a lot of use.

 

I decided to quilt this one with a crosshatch pattern and I love the binding on this quilt it looks quite delicate.

Better get this in the post so it reaches the birthday girl in time...
