This lovely stitchery quilt has blocks with things such as the birth dates of the maker ,her husband , and their children.Their favourite cats present and passed , and other cherished memories. I could feel the love in this quilt as I was quilting it.

Boston Commons
Hello again.
This is a "Boston Commons" quilt It was a great learning curve for me as the borders,blocks,and triangles were all too big to quilt in one pass. I learnt how to successfully divide blocks to make them fit into the space I could quilt then to roll on the quilt and rejoin the blocks with no spaces and no tell tale signs. I used designs by Anne Bright,and I was very pleased with the finished quilt as was the owner.

Double Wedding ring
I quilted a huge double wedding ring and I only got 1 photo of it that is any good. The first photo shows some of the fullness in the quilt which I was able to tame with quilting.
The second photo shows some of the designs used on the quilt. I hope you like what you see. It looked stunning when finished.

I'm Back and with a Mariners Compass.
Hello everyone,
I have been on holiday to New Zealand ,then my computer played up.I have just got a new desktop computer and am learning how to use it.
This is my first Mariners Compass quilt. Such a stunning one to start with. All the blocks around the quilt are quilted differently also .It was daunting to start with but once I started I just loved doing it. I hope you like it.
