Trip Around The World Quilt Finished

Danni has nearly finished her very large quilt.

Her first ever Quilt!

It is made up of six and half inch squares.

The pattern is called 'Trip around the World'.

Danni made it for a Super Kingsized Bed and 

made it in the  'Quilt as You Go Method'.

Taking sections, quilting them and then putting

them altogether.

Danni is putting on the last of the bias binding and she's 

 finished.

Well done Danni!

First Quilt for Karen

Karen has just come along to the Textile Thursday Session

and she was a cross-stitcher but wants to learn Patchwork and Quilting.

She had been given a charm pack and started putting it together 

as a quillo sized quilt.

The masking tape labels are to help sew together, 

especially as you need to

collect it all together to go home. 

Or move it due to space constraints.

If you don't label you often find you put them back 

together in a totally different sequence.

This makes it easier.

Karen got to grips with the rotary cutter really quick and

learnt lots of lessons with the seven eights 

(when making the half triangles).

Karen brought along the cross-stitch she had framed to give

to her Mum.

Beautiful!
