My Mum has been visiting & has finished her cot quilt for my niece. We traipsed all over the local botanic gardens to find the perfect spot to photograph it.
I had poor Mum climbing over hedges, battling branches & all but hanging from trees to get these photos. The things I make her do!
I really love the back of the quilt, borne of necessity as we didn't have enough backing fabric.
All folded & ready for delivery. Good job Mum!Unfortunately, the reveal mentioned in my last tantalising post has been unavoidably delayed. Sorry to be such a tease! Circumstances beyond my control have meant a little more waiting.
Beautiful quilt your niece will love it. Lovely photos and a clever back too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt. Good that you run out of back fabric it really looks great. Love it
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I love the back as much as the front!
