TIME FOR QUILTING

9 January 2009

QUILTING TIME

I finally got to quilt today. It felt so good to fondle the fabrics as I chose the fabric for a baby capsule/pram quilt for a very close friend’s daughter’s baby. As they are all into hot air ballooning I decided to use some of my hot air balloon fabric. I took some time to design a pattern. I chose to use roman stripes with some square inserts. Then came the fun of choosing fabrics. Luckily I have brought most of my fabrics down to Tura so I was able to audition fabrics for the quilt from my stash.

Slowly the quilt came together over several days in between spending time with our son’s family and walks to the beach.
