The pattern of this adorable quilt was published in issue 7 of Love Patchwork and Quilting magasine and it was a very popular sew-along at the time - here are a few to look at!
Mine was originally meant for a swap, but I decided to swap another - beautiful! - quilt instead and to finish this one to keep for myself! Why not??)))
The idea was to use some of my lovely Liberty fabrics! And I love love love the way they show in these envelopes! :)
Another feature is the double needle I have used for quilting. The effect is amazing and I try to forget all the hussle it took to do it. The thread kept breaking even after I did thread the threads properly))) Never mind, it's done now and it's fab!!!
Will hang this mini on the wall in my crafts room - the walls are still empty and are asking for decoration. xx
Enjoy yourselves and your quilting! :-)) x

ReplyDeleteСпасибо! ТщательнЕе заправляйте нитки, когда будете пробовать - там это важно, каждую нитку в свой пазик заправить.
DeleteThis is so beautiful and delicate Tatyana, and I love the double needle effect!

DeleteStunning Tatyana, love the twin needle work, I must try using mine again. I gave up a bit after some thread breaking

DeleteThank you so much, Sheila! I used silk threads first time for double needle - no problem at all, this time it took me try and error to understand I did not thread the threads properly. Then it was Ok. For small projects it is a good variation. Not for large ones :)
