A Quilt for ric-rac

Friday, February 5th, 2010

Well I have been telling you for quite some time that I have been working a secret project.

It is finally finished and off to live at it’s new house – Chez Ric-Ric.

This quilt was made with the wonderful help of all you fantastic bloggers out there. I collected the blocks – selvedge of course, then put them all together in a quilt to celebrate Jodie’s big birthday last year.

It was so much fun to make but alas, I didn’t take any photos because I was too excited to give it to the girl.

Lucky she just put a photo on her blog and I have just borrowed it.
Thanks Jodie

A lovely customer of mine, Carly, came in during the week to show me her weekender travel bag. It is an Amy Butler pattern and Carly used one of the Kokka Linen/cotton fabrics. She then piped it in red hanky linen.

We had a lovely class on the weekend with just two students in the class. Mum taught the Double Wedding Ring quilt. A very tricky quilt to piece.

Mum and I made some quick cushions using Prints Charmings paisley hand prints. I just stuck the coloured bits on and then free motion quilted it all. Mum did the backs using strips and the quilt as you go method of assembly.
