Quilting for Cherie, Janine & Judith

Hello Quilty Friends!
I have a wonderfully colourful & textured post for you today, if only it was a 'touch screen' then you would surely be rubbing her hands over the two Sue Spargo quilts!
Janine's Flora hand embroidered wool quilt was finished last year but due to Sue Spargo's rules I could not share photo's until the pattern was released to the masses!
You will also see Judith's Chirp quilt, another Sue Spargo design.
But first lets take a look at Cherie's two colourful rail fence quilts made to gift to a boy & one for a girl.
If you make it through all the photos you will be rewarded with a short video.

A recent finish of mine is BIRDS OF AOTEAROA. I purchased the gorgeous Ellen Giggenbach panel then got to rummaging through my stash for suitable coordinating fabrics. I got the quilt top together in fair time but then it hung around waiting for quilting. I sent a request to an American digital designer for a Kowhai border. I was delighted with their design, I think it makes the quilt.
True to form this is another quilt that IS FOR SALE!
