Lyn made this quilt for her daughter in Australia, she asked me to please quilt an all over design. I chose flowers & leaves. I used a Madeira polyneon variegated thread. Lyn supplied the poly batting.
This a large quilt 82 " x 89" otherwise I would have displayed it on my new quilt hanger..................
Made with oak, measuring 1.5 mtrs complete with a lovely drawer. My son has been working away on this all year at school for NCEA. Hasn't he done a lovely job! I said he could easily make these to sell.
The quilt on the rack is a BOM I did a few years ago called "Sea Angels", designed by Susan Claire
So here we are into November, with the year ticking by very quickly!!!
Wishing you all a creative weekend........& warm wishes to those in the US who are affected by the storm.
Oooo! That Bargello quilt just radiates with those citrus colors. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour son made a great quilt rack for you--you lucky woman.
Where did this year go? Is that a sign of age? As a child it seemed like forever from one Christmas to the next. Now it seems the decorations have barely had time to cool off in their boxes. : )
You got the quilt rack up and it looks great. I do so think he should make some to sell ... I will be his first customer!!
ReplyDeleteGrin I will be the second customer!!The Bargello is vibrant isn't it - the all over design looks like it works well on it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like talent runs in the family. I think it's great when kids get to make something useful for school projects/activities. These are often things that are shown with so much pride many... many...many years later to grandchildren etc...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt Leeanne and again lovely quilting by you...
ReplyDeleteYour son did a great job of the quilt hanger...I think he'll be getting orders for more..
