Mother’s Quilt

Hello Everybody

As you might remember I have been helping my mother with the design and creation of a quilt featuring one of the Flower Fairies by Cicely Mary Barker.

And she has now completed it

I believe it to be the Elderberry Fairy and the quilt fits nicely on her single bed. She was so proud of herself as she is 81 this year. The quilting was around alternate squares in the borders. She had already quilted the centre-piece by back stitching around the fairies and then layering another wadding and the backing so the centre is slightly raised.

We are now starting another one, I design a layout and then cut the necessary pieces to paper piece or machine sew whichever is her preference

Well that is all for now
