Minty freshness

My little red camera was back working hard again last week when I met up with my quilting buddies, the English Quilt girls, at Robbie’s home.

Our little visitor for the day, Minty, a West Highland Terrier pup, couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw all the cleverness these girls had been up to, particularly their hand quilting.

Robbie’s using perle cotton and larger stitches as a feature on this happy little quilt for her baby granddaughter.

Jill spent most of last year perfecting her hand applique on her Deauville quilt, a Chris Jurd pattern.

Now it’s all finished and she’s enjoying quilting it after marking her lines with tape.

  3. Minty is very cute! The quilts are lovely too, so are the quilts in your next post. I'm being lazy commenting on two posts with one comment but there you go.....time gets away, and I missed the last one!
