Birthday Gift

I can only show you a few edited photos of Miss S birthday gift, as I am making several more of the same projects for other gifts.



 Happy Birthday Miss S!!

Come back at the end of March to see the complete full picture of the gift. 

Tulip Quilt

I made this wall hanging many years ago at a South West Quilters workshop in Exeter.  The tutor was Anja Townrow.   

Anja taught us her method for machine curved piecing.  She is a witty wonderful tutor and shares her knowledge willingly.  I had used her curved piecing method on several of my projects.  

I had intended to enlarge this pattern to make a much bigger wall hanging using a black batik fabric for the background with very bright batiks fabrics for the tulip.  Another quilt to add to my project list for 2013!

Cyprus Star

I have decided to show you some of my early, very early pieces of work.  I made this wall hanging when I lived on the mediterranean  island of Cyprus in the late nineties. 

I made two Cyprus Star but I only finished this wall hanging.  Why?  The other star has a brown background fabric and I do not enjoy working with brown fabric.  I am going to add a picture of this other star when I remember where it is.  And add it to the UFO's that need to be finished in 2013!!!    

I will try and blog about other early pieces of work next week.
