It’s true! The English Quilters have proved it.
Just look at some of the projects we “showed and told” when we met for our monthly sewing day last week.
Anne’s making progress with her Lynne Alchin-designed medallion quilt, Laurel’s Stars. Lots and lots of leaves to applique 
Jill’s Deauville quilt top, a Chris Jurd design in mellow antique hues, is finished and looking fabulous.
Jill saw her quilt backing as a perfect opportunity to use up her leftover fabrics.
Stitch by stitch Gail has been patiently hand quilting this vast tumbling blocks quilt for a very long time now – and finally it’s finished!
We all agreed that it would not look out of place on a four-poster bed in a historic house (even in my house 
)
More chocolate cake-fuelled creativity to come…

Of course, Di, it's a well known fact that chocolate boosts creativity.....especially when accompanied by a good coffee!
ReplyDeleteGail's quilt is outstanding. If that's what you can do on chocolate cake - I'll have the recipe please. (Beautiful)
