twins.................



Marcelle has been busy growing twin girls & making two quilts!!! She is super women........I know you will read this Marcelle & laugh!
So two quilts the same but not.
 They are both made with the same fabrics & made with half square triangles but with different layouts. Both are backed with polar fleece, one with navy, the other with a pink. I just did a simple all over design using a poly neon variegated thread from Madeira. I did flowers on one quilt & hearts on the other.





I thought you might like to see my new scissors I purchased the other day. They are double curved for close cutting. I find them great for clipping threads.

  6. I love half-square triangles. They are so versatile. And these are great layouts. Good luck to Marcelle, she's going to be even busier soon!

  7. These are beautiful quilts, so different looking but with the common theme, gorgeous quilting too! Good luck to the clever Mum.....
    Those scissors are awesome, never seen anything like them before, would make clipping embroidery thread ends so much easier and neater.
