Feathery Fun!

French General Style

This is the second quilt I have finished off for Janet S, made from the leftovers from her earlier 'French General' quilt, on a background of Ivory 'Crackle' by Kathy Schmitz for Moda, (one of my favourite fabrics in my collection).



                                                                      Janet asked me to quilt allover feathers again and I think I am even more pleased with how they turned out this time. I started out with 2 full reels of King Tut thread in Flax colour.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       As I got near to the bottom I started to panic and I ended up with literally an arm's length to spare - how jammy was that!!!!!!!!!




It was worth all the work, though, I am so pleased with the texture.







Next up is a lovely fun applique quilt with cars and trucks on a batik background.
Don't forget to pop into the NSPCC Christmas Fair at Allum Hall in Borehomwood, 10am- 4pm this Sunday, if you are local. Studio Quilters will be putting the final bits together for the stall at this Saturday's meeting.

After all that is over, I want to get down to some creative time for myself.

Happy Quilting Everyone!
Janet
