"Sweet"


The Sweet Quilt is completed!  This has to be my favourite quilt ever.  I love the colours, I love that I hand quilted it, I love that the backing is a vintage sheet gifted by my Granny.

Made from one Layer Cake (purchased pre Utmost Challenge, I remind you!), the design is my own.  I think it would make a great first quilting project, especially as you can achieve the "scrappy" look without having to wait to accumulate enough scraps.


Now I have a certain Hexagon quilt (and now a crochet blanket too), but they will not be completed for some time to come.

I have a nice pile of vintage sheets accumulating - I just need a couple more to have enough variety to start my next quilting project (I appear to have NO luck at finding any lately).
