Of course that includes a quick review of the quilts finished this year. My overall yield of quilts was depressingly low this year, mainly due to work and schedule problems. This is not a complaint, I feel truly priviliged to have work and my life is richer than ever. Nevertheless, next year, I surely want to give my hobby a bigger priority than I did in 2016.
Below a scrap quilt, that was lying in top-staged for the longest time. I found a deal for a suitable back fabric in august and quilted simple crossing serpentines with the walking food of my maschine. I gave it to our neighbour yesterday, because I used many of the scraps she had given me.
Some colours in the white-grey snowy landscape.
For this project I had cut up all my leftovers strips and patches into suitable length and width. They were foundation pieced on very 25 x 25 cm squares of very old and very thin bedlinen. Sewing took place either as "leaders and enders" during other projects or every now and then a square or two by itself. After all squares were covered in strips, all of them were squared up and sewn together in a diamond manner.
I loved going through my scraps and remember the rpojects they were used in :-) THere was definitely a green and a turquoise time. Oh and all the pinks!
How are your thoughts concerning 2016? Any plans for 2016?
Have a great holiday season!
