while you're ahead…

Two quilts in one month… you could be forgiven for thinking this is a quilting blog like it used to be in the good old days!

Anyway, this is a commission, and like all commission it’s a bit scary because… well… what if the person doesn’t like it? what if I misunderstood what they’re after…

The pale colours are very different from what I normally work with but surprisingly I loved the challenge of this scheme.

It was actually quite a restful experience working with pale blues and sage and gold…

I took a gamble on the fabric for the reverse… I don’t know what it is, I remember buying it years ago in Purl Soho in New York… I still love it but it was time to let it go to a good home.

Yes,  I enjoyed this one a lot.

I’ve got another two in the pipeline and I just heard my cousin is expecting a little girl… bring it on!
