Quilt Hugs made from Vintage Linens


Cat is at it again, her heart open wide to those having a tough time. This sweet quilt is heading out to bring comfort to someone you needs to know someone cares & loves them.

Before quilting

The red sets off the off set log cabins. The addition of the vintage linen as the central 'log' is a special touch and gave me space to add some messages.

you can see the orange vintage sheet Cat supplied as the backing fabric.




Cat had me do the Full Quiltmekiwi Binding service so the quilt was all ready to hand over when she received the finished quilt in the post.

    I really like what you did with the red squares. And it looks like you had lots of fun in the log cabin blocks.
    So good of Cat to do this!

    Your quilting is perfect on this one - I love what you did in the reds to create 'frames' for the pieced blocks And I always love the addition of words in quilting when possible!

    Cat is such a caring person...such a pretty quilt and thevintage linen is a clever addition to the centre of the blocks....cool quilting with the mix of straight lines and feathers.
