MORE QUILTS - SORRY!

Mock Pineapple - a very quick one to make, honestly, it is.
This one not so quick, but very effective, I designed and made this one for Makower UK - it made it to a magazine!!! It is my design not someone else's!!!!!
Ah, my favourites, teddies, I have lots and lots of them and this Quilt honours them.
Another quilt made for Makower UK, this is called Flower Path - some intense quilting on this one.
Yet another Makower UK quilt, I think I called this one Rose Trellis or something like that anyway. All the Makower UK quilts I made, I designed myself.
I have a nasty feeling I have already put this one on, if I have, sorry! It was made for a competition in a magazine for 'Squares'...............I didn't win anything!
This is a small hanging in the Amish style....cute isn't it?a close up of the above

Something different, not a quilt really I made this as a door curtain for my mum for her draughty old house, she loved it. It has come back to me, no-one else in the family wanted it!! Says a lot! Mind you the Quilt I made her went to my SIL. I hope she is enjoying the use of it.
This is a lap quilt, not my usual colours but I think it works. Did this as a class, a Sampler quilt.
Again something a little bit different, you know when you straighten your fabrics, the bit you cut off generally goes in the bin, ho ho not for this chick it doesn't. I save it all. This was made from such bits and pieces. Neat huh!

and this is the back view for you to see the quilting I did.
Another backside [?] view for you, the corner so you can see how I turned the feather round the corner. This was all done with the fee dogs down and free machine quilted. so if there is a hiccup, tough, I don't mind. I was singing away with Robbie whilst doing this. Great fun.
Jacobean Quilting, first time I had ever tried it, still not sure whether I like it or not.
Here we have a quilt that won me a prize!! How strange is that. The fabrics were supplied, well some of them were, we could add up to 4 more and then had to make something a specific size. This is what I did. I call it 'They Fall at Night Too!'The end. Whew! Till next time. Not many left now.
