Peter Rabbit is finished. It was an experiment, to see what could be used, from my stash. The back was pieced with leftovers from other projects, the batting is pieces from larger quilts, once they were done. The second part of this exercise was to see how well hand and machine quilting could be used together. Not so well, as a few bubbles resulted on the back. As it is a love quilt, it will get used.
The process was an adventure, which taught me a few things, along the way. It can be done, just do not mix the quilting methods with a pieced backing. With one backing piece, this did not happen before. Still enjoyed making this quilt.
Linda finished this baby blanket. She will keep it for future grandchildren.
Diane started this piece, for her daughter.
Love Entwined is still a work in progress. Every week a little bit more work gets done.
Started a baby hat, with leftover yarn. Not enough to make a hat, but together it will be.
The poncho is done. It is made with two rectangles, sewn together.
It keeps my shoulders warm, it is thick and chunky. Perfect for the very cold weather and snow we are experiencing at the moment.
I love your Peter Rabbit! He's my favourite and now you've immortalized him with this stunning quilt. Thank you also for featuring the blue delft pattern I'm working on.I'm really enjoying working on it and I know my daughter will cherish this piece with her Dutch heritage. Danke.
ReplyDeleteAll those great pieces. Nothing like cold weather to encourage hand work.
