I love this quilt!! My friend, Sydney, made this quilt top for me in exchange for quilting services!! I gave her the fabrics and here is what she made for me! I LOVE IT!! I want to make my sister one!
The other two pictures are quilts that are going on the machine this weekend. The Dresden Plate quilt is from a neighbor whose grandmother began piecing a while back. I've finished piecing the top, now I have to piece the back and quilt it. I will quilt it with traditional feather vines and feather wreaths. The red and cream color quilt is for a relative's b'day. I must get that done soon! Well, Sewing with Nancy is on....must go!
Your quilts are so beautiful!! All of them have such a glorious vintage feel to them. . . hidden spools looks a little more "modern" but wow! at your dresden plate. My most cherished vintage quilt is a dresden plate made of old polyestery clothing. . it's so beautifully worn and perfect. I still have yet to make one. . you are very lucky to be a part of such a treasure.
ReplyDeleteWow - I am especially looking at your SPOOLS quilt - I've seen a lot of "Ordinary" quilts, but this one is spectacular - I may need to do one soon!
