time for some bright & cheery!




Wendy made this quilt for her daughter Charlie, I think this will be fun in a teenage girls room, don't you think?
Wendy trusted me to go ahead & do what I thought best for the quilt.



Using a mix of Gunold & Madeira polyneon threads I hope I have created a funky, whimsical design.

Next Jill made a table runner for me to quilt, this one is pretty but bright & cheery too. Jill is new to quilting & is doing really well learning & picking up all the 'lingo'. As we know there is much to learn & there is always more to learn! Do we ever stop learning?



Hopefully if you click on the photo's you will see the lovely Mettler variegated poly thread used top & bottom. I quilted a looping feather vine ( inspired from a Carla Barrett online class ) & curling ribbon.
I hope everyone's week is going great!

  8. That's a really lovely quilt top and of course your quilting really finishes it off. I think I'm really attracted to it because they are my sort of colours.

    and aren't stripy bindings the best?!
