What to do, when your mother creates a drop-dead-gorgeous quilt & you don't have a garden to photograph it in? Pop down to the local park, drape it over anything you can find & hope no-one is watching!
Mum has been working on this single Irish chain quilt for a couple of years now & has just finished stitching the bind. It is for her own bed.
This is the first quilt we have had professionally quilted, and the quilting is really beautiful - stippled all over, with a feather border. Photos of quilting detail
here.
Would make sleeping on a park bench quite classy, don't you think?
Congratulations Mum - a beautiful quilt - don't forget to label it!
