After the
recent flurry of quilty activities and a new job you may think that there was
no time to sew. Almost right 😊
!
I did manage
to finish a quilt I wanted to finish for a long time, it was a BOM by Quilt It
& Dotty (click) in 2012 so it has been in my sewing room for quite a few
years.
This type of
quilt is not my usual thing, but it was fun to make and is sweet to look at.
Because of its
size is was a bit difficult to take pictures of the whole quilt, but with two
helpers we managed it.
Some details:
Oh dear, my
angel still needs to go to the hairdresser…
These buttons
were given to me by fellow Feathergirl Hubertine (click), she bought these when
she visited the quiltshop of Veronique Requena in France, Veronique is the
designer of this quilt, so this is a special touch to this quilt.
Quilt stats:
Size: 2.00 m x
1.78 m (79” x 70”)
Fabric: cotton
and bits of wool
Batting: 100%
cotton
Method: hand
piecing, hand applique, hand quilting (big stitch quilting), quilt as you go
Pattern: Veronique Requena, BOM by Dorry from Quilt It
and Dotty
Now that this
ufo is finished I really want to finish another one. So which one to chose,
there are so many lurking in my sewing room…..
Do you have
that ‘problem’ too…?
