...a few years ago our house was full of blankets...the crochet kind...granny square...afghan...stripe...I think you get the picture or see here ...if you want to get a better idea...now they are all folded neatly and have been put to one side to make way for a new obsession....
quilts...all these lovely new fabrics and patterns drew me in and I am hooked...
 |
| one for a friend :) |
the way they look so different to the faded vintage prints I so love using is the best bit....
 |
| one for our #2 |
...this also means that my boys don't seem to mind having them around...
 |
| the latest one |
so now we all have one on our bed...
 |
| mine..all mine :) |
of course I still love the old florals :)
 |
these throws are reduced at the moment in my shop
I am looking forward to making a few more quilts and then I think I need to move onto something else ...or we will need to move to a bigger house ;-)
hope you are having a happy week x x x x x
Beautiful (especially mine).
ReplyDeleteWe NEED to do a Abakhans. I must get started on one.
Your blog posts make my day. Xxx
Hi Jane -lovely quilts - I have also been drawn into making quilts - I agree they are quite addictive and lots of fun - although I'm not so kenn on putting the layers together x
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are beautiful Jane ... especially the triangle one ... I am trying to get on with some quilting ... but am slightly terrified of the thought of machine quilting ... not sure I am a competent enough sewist yet ... oh well ... I suppose I won't know until I try :) ... wishing you a lovely week ... Bee xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great thing to have such creative obsessions x Jane

Starting to dabble in piecing here. Don't know if it will lead to the quilting bit.

ReplyDeleteThey are all gorgeous! Love the quilt on your bed, so pretty!
