Love your new quilt. I love scrappy quilts anyway and the colours you have chosen are beautiful . The pop of red adds another dimension. Aren't we quilters strange animals? Always pointing out tiny mistakes that no one else would ever see? I have not looked at your quilt for mistakes, only the colours and how much it makes me feel happy! The quilter Dorothy Stapleton has a wonderful phrase which is my mantra.' Mistakes are a design opportunity'. So if your pinwheel points don't match exactly in the middle, sew a button there, or a Suffolk puff or a tiny appliquéd flower etc! Years ago I made a log cabin style quilt and when I was quilting it I found a few places where I hadn't sewn the 1/4" seams properly, so I covered them with appliquéd hearts! In effect I was putting on a patch. It worked and the quilt had another level of interest!
love the quilt and that you made it for you from all your special bits, sorry to hear about the glandular fever ;o( but super happy to hear Mr B is good!! :o) xxx
it was a healing quilt for you of sorts. Glad the MR is on the mend and happy! What mistakes are you noticing and asking if we have noticed??
Such a pretty and big quilt! Yay for finding happy and being on the mend xx
a gorgeous quilt! adore the heart pillow too. Vintage pillowcases seem hard to find these days. I've just received the material for my 4 th paper for this year and have already signed up for semester one next year too - exam in a week - oh boy....Good luck for any exams you may have.
