Ok so it's about time I shared my quilts! My mum's skill inspired me to make a start on some of my own. We occasionally go to
http://www.fabricguild.co.uk/ to get some fabrics at warehouse prices. I was lucky enough to pick up a batik jelly roll by Fabric Freedom for just £18. I loved the patterns, and I wanted to show the continuity of the patterns within the quilt, so that inspired the pattern for this quilt, which I designed myself:
I recently had a look on the fabric freedom website and completely by coincidence discovered that they had done a very similar pattern with the exact same jelly roll!
However, they haven't matched the fabrics up to get the continuity, and I have to say I prefer mine. Is that bad?! Let me know what you think!
You sooooo need to come shopping with me!
ReplyDeleteStunning! Just the sort of effect I'm looking for. How clever for your first quilt - I'm a beginner too.
