First up my finish for January as part of
which is Chinese Coins below - finished yesterday and
measuring 27" by 35"
another photo with my all time favourite
bowl, just the perfect shade of jade green.
Each elongated triangle was quilted individually which made for
a lot of swishing the quilt around!
After finishing CC yesterday I moved on to a totally unrelated
project, hopefully as part of the next AHIQ invitational.
Some of you may remember this from quite some time back!
Corner triangles were planned but
I wasn't happy enough with it to carry on, into the unfinished
drawer it went.
Yesterday I fished it out and did a little unpicking
and I have an idea for using this central piece which I love.
Due to my mishap with the machine needle and other happenings
I've had a pretty slow two weeks and desperately need to get some
order into my quilting life - after all my word for the year is
BALANCE
so I should put it into action.
I've set a few days aside to do this and I am behind with
writing down my thoughts on the Kaffe Fassett lecture,
that will be done for my next post - definitely!!
To end this post I must show you photograph of a decayed stem
and flowers from my orchid, I love the beauty to still be found at
this stage
just look at those soft pastel colours!! A quiet quilt in the making perhaps.
Happy quilting and do visit
for lots of January finshes.
