Yet, Phew! All packed and shipped today. :)
This boats quilt from Cotton & Steel is my personal toy! With simple - but effective!)) - pattern for the boats and a huuuuge negative space, the quilt gave me endless opportunities to quilt it to death!))) And so I did) Inspired and empowered by the talented longarm quilter and teacher Angela Walters! xx
The techniques I used:
Freezer paper-piecing method to make the boats
Organic free-motion quilting for negative space, i.e., no marking
Materials used:
Solid cottons mostly from Michael Miller Cotton Couture range
Prints from Art Gallery Fabrics and Liberty.
Quilters Dream Request 100% cotton wadding (very thin!)
Size: 145x145cm
This quilt is not the only quilt that will have my name on it at the Festival of Quilts this year! ;)
Three amazingly talented quilters - Jo Avery (@mybearpaw), Jenny Haynes(@peppersaxsten) and Sheila Scott - have submitted their quilts to the FOQ where I had an honour and a priviledge to longarm quilt their beautiful quilts!
So, overall, there will be 4 quilts from me! At the very least, I should get a recognition for the quantity, if not for the quality!!! :-)))
