quilts in the making

Currently working on two quilts at the moment, one I have already cut and pieced together, along the style of 1930's vintage quilts; this one fits nicely on the top of a double bed, and covers a single one.



I like the old fashioned look of these colours

I will keep the quilting fairly simple following the squares, with maybe a chain pattern around the borders.










This is the other quilt I am working on, similar colours, modern in style. I will also be adding a lighter border, with lines of rick rack here and there.






























colour inspiration from the garden.

Pictures from a walled garden, and bright beach huts in my next blog.
Putting up the hanging baskets next week. Better late than never !
