Done...



I finished Jens quilt today... Happy to report he's now a 11 year old happy camper with a quilt warm enough to replace any duvet even in the wintertime :) You know, they say everything is a phase. I'm wondering if this heavy-fleece-quilt is too. Maybe some day my kids will want to use a normal cotton quilt again?


This picture is just from when I finished the binding - it's a bit wrinkled and needs ironing.

  2. It looks great Cille - definitely very thick and warm. I love how the quilting really adds definition to the piecing!

  4. Hi Cille! Fantastic quilt! Quilting made that pattern really pop out! Fabrics and colours are beautiful! I always wash my quilts after finishing and never iron because I love the wrinkle look which created shadows and makes the quilting more visible. x Teje

    Why would you want to iron a quilt, I wonder?

  9. Happiness is our children wanting handmade quilts from mom and snuggling in them. It's a handsome quilt for your birthday boy!
