Seam by seam


I planned to show you the Snowman quilt with better colours than the first photo, but I liked this photo better :-)
DD2 and I were enjoying ourselves, and even if the sun was shining, it was cold, and comfortable to wrap in a quilt.
Did I mention my new beautiful purple Hortensias froze to death the other day ? Yes, we are having below 0 degrees C at night now - brrrr........

This is my current focus project - The Town and City quilt - from EQ - group project with two friends.
The blocks are huge - 5" x 5", 5" x 10" and so on.
We have all enjoyed the joined effort to complete our own quilts, even if we all think the project turned out to big.
I will give my quilt as a care quilt to children with long term diseases when it is done.
My DD1, age 20, said that this quilt will be perfect as a play quilt for a Barbie mum, with houses, streets, flowers (to come) and all.
Good idea !!
So far I have stuck to my May plan of working on what I have around here.
Go Me ! :-)

  2. Really nice representation of snowman quilt! My easter lilies (yellow daffodils) froze about a month ago, and now I keep an eye on my Mother's Day geranium and the temperature.
    The Town and City quilt looks very nice and will be a wonderful donation!
