I have been a quilter for over 15 years now, inspired by my late Grandma Emma who spent many hours quilting and Tatting. My first ever quilt I made in honour of her and cut out each 2 ½ inch square of fabric with scissors, stitched each piece together by hand with needle and thread, then hand quilted it...I was 23. Tatting, the ancient art of Victorian lace making, she taught me at the age of 12. And although quilting has somewhat taken over my life, I still enjoy the art of Tatting now and again.
It's definitely that time of year! Above is another customer quilt, made for a graduation gift. I wish I received a quilt for graduation...all I got was luggage...think they were trying to tell me something??? Ha Ha!!! I quilted this one using the pattern Fascination by Lorien, which is such a nice pattern and I used lime Cucurini thread and it looks FAB!
