Simon's Quilt

Just a short and sweet post today to share photos of a little quilt I made late last year for a friend's baby, born at Christmas time.


Circumstances prevented me giving it to them until recently.


This was very much a practice piece for my free motion quilting on a domestic machine.




Someone commented that my feathers look like fluffy clouds


Quite appropriate, really, since the colours, to me, suggest sunshine , sea and sky.


I'm happy with that, and I think little Simon and his Mummy and Daddy might be too.

  4. It's a charming quilt, Di, and for a "practice" of feathers, I'd say you've got that lesson ready for a recital! The colors you chose are soft-looking, and calming. I bet the bub and family loved your gift.
