In an effort to make more storage space I have spent the last few weeks finishing three projects. About seven years ago, I did a 'Come and Cut Again' workshop with Edwina Mackinnon at the Bramble Patch in Weedon Bec and, finally, here is the finished work which will be (yet another) cushion:
The next piece was started four or five years ago when I was shown how to make a very easy patchwork block - pointless patchwork - and I've just completed a huge quilt using odd bits of fabric. There is almost no hand-stitching and a minimal amount of quilting. It's now residing on my bed but is going to be sold/auctioned to raise money for charity.
Finally I've made a quilted table cover in traditional hexagons. It was originally supposed to be a bed quilt but I lost heart. I was given the patterned fabric and some made-up motifs by a friend who had started sewing it some years ago. Everything is hand-stitched except the bound edges.
