I have been working on a custom order this week, an order for a quilt top only as my customer is going to be hand quilting the quilt herself. This makes a nice change from my "normal". Often whilst basting a quilt the thought I'd be quite happy making quilt tops for the rest of my life runs through my mind, and this was my opportunity to sample what I have wished for.
It does however feel quite strange to be shipping off a project that is incomplete, and I'm not sure that this is the way to go forth. But I have enjoyed the fabric play for this quilt and there are many I-Spy themes including fabrics with clothing, shoes, cups and saucers, food, bikes, bugs, and fish, and animals. There are also numerous hard to find Heather Ross fabrics as well as other Japanese imports.
221 fabric squares
and approximately 200 different fabrics,
all of which take much longer to cut than to sew back together again,
and has created a fabric mountain of gigantic proportions.
Now planning my next project,
Rita
