Here it is laying over the lounge as I haven't even got it to Max's room yet, it's still in the show off stage.
But never one to be sitting still I've been moving on a couple of baby quilts, I love this pinwheel pattern and this quilt will be a gift for either Kimberly or Nicole's new babies due in August and October.
It went from this to....
...this
With the help of a handy little template ruler from Aussie Patches . It's a pattern that I have wanted to try for many many years after I saw a quilt in a Australian Patchwork and Quilting magazine well over 10 years ago. I love love love it. I have a selection of vintage modern and kona solids to complete another.
But in the meantime, I have started this! I'm sorry that the photo is upside down but you are only supposed to be looking at the fabric anyway.
This quilt is for Amanda, I'll tell more of her story as I go along. Needless to say she has been a wonderful support and selfless person to someone special in our lives, and she is the colour purple. This quilt was started on Wednesday when my gorgeous sister in law came over and we had a play date! The photo shows 3 rows together, but it is currently now 7 rows wide. The pattern is Twisted Bargello by Chris Timmins of Grafton in NE NSW. Chris also has a pattern in the current issue of Quilters Companion mag.
So, along with customer quilts and family, I'll be staying busy until next time,
Jane
