Quilting days …

02/09/2012 § 7 Comments

just a taste of the quilts that I finished over the summer …

Phew! I did a lot of quilting in my holidays this year. I’m completely addicted to the whole process as I was back here in January, and have found some stunning fabrics here and there when jaunting, as well as discovering a fair few that I’d forgotten about when I sorted out my room into a proper studio space.

I’m going to a post about using larger prints in patchwork – watch this space! Hopefully next week. Just working on a tutorial, as requested by Sarah for the pattern for Gypsy Rose, too. As you may know, I seldom follow a pattern or recipe, but I’ll work out what I did easily enough – Gypsy Rose spent last night warming my toes in bed! It wasn’t chilly enough for a full blanket like Ripple 1 or Misty Morning, but toes definitely needed some extra warmth – Autumn has arrived!

Hope you all have a lovely week. Pop over to see Wendy’s Handmade Monday get together and share what everyone’s been making and creating.

PS I didn’t get to the Vintage & Retro market today for complicated reasons, but all is well now so I hope to be in Alton next weekend, as planned.
