Well my Yoko Saito quilt now called “Japanese Applique”
(sorry that isn’t a very exciting name) is finished (well almost!) and hanging
on the wall of our stall at the Hamilton Quilt and Craft Fair. And I must say I
am very pleased with it. Now you can all see it too.
I have almost finished the quilting – I am going to cross
hatch the blocks – I have only done it one way on most of them at this stage
and the border is also only stitched one way and I am thinking of mixing it up
a bit – some cross hatching and some parallel lines just one way.
We have cut lots of Block of the Month sets and hope to sell
many of them at the Show. Or of course you can pick them up from the shop - Patchwork Passion, Onehunga, Auckland, New Zealand. We have included a copy Yoko Saito's wonderful Applique Block book within the Block of the Month Programme.
Over the next few days I will post some of the other
projects I have been working on and we have just released. So you will go to
hardly ever hearing from me to getting lots of
news over the next few weeks.
This looks absolutely stunning and it's even better "in person" :-) It's very inspiring...
