Copy Cat - the time has come...

After quilting solidly for nearly 2 years now I felt it was time. Ta da!

Diamond Quilt

I can't even remember what this quilt is called because I cut it out and set it aside at least a year ago. I don't know why I didn't finish it. I thought the fabrics were pretty then and I still think they are pretty now. Anyway, I finished it up in my busy sew-a-thon and here it is.






















ETA - I just found the instructions and it was based on the Sweet Divinity Diamond Quilt by Jona & Lilith

Animal Drunkards Path

My friend Daisy and I started making this animal quilt for a baby shower for a friend of hers. I had so much fun making a few of the animals that I got carried away and made two cushions as well.

























I still didn't feel satiated after that so I started another one on my own. I made up a snail to replace the bat which I thought was a bit boring.












I did some very heavy duty quilting on the animals and around them as well.

Miles Louis & Kate Frankie

They're here! My good friend has had her beautiful babies. They are the sweetest little poppets and I went to give them a big squeeze the other day and deliver their quilts.

Miles's quilt was a variation of a drunkards path whilst Kate's was a pretty pastel concoction.

Miles's Quilt:



I've started getting a bit more adventurous with the quilting, and although very basic, it has worked well here.
