We have finished our three day Retreat with Katrina Hadjimichael.
What a wonderful few days we had with her.
I was working on my Pemberley Quilt that I actually started with her last year, but just haven't had time to get it finished. Shop samples keep on getting in the way!!
This is the centre of the quilt that I started on last year and did find a little time to stitch
and add on the corner sections and the next border..
This year I got the next borders ready for stitching - well almost - just little
gold semi-circles to add.
I prepared these two blocks for stitching. They form the next round of
borders - along with several more versions of them and another
design yet to be made.
I am not sure the centre of this one is staying - I suspect the motif is not
round enough for placement within the circle, but I do like the colour
as it links back into my 'tongues' in the centre.
This block has some 'leaves' to be added around the edge.
So that is quite good progress with time snatched between co-ordinating
the Retreat and helping others.
This is Katrina's sample.
We will have patterns available soon for it.
You can place your order at the shop now.

Would you kit this or is it more a "scrappy" type quilt where one's stash provides the fabric?
ReplyDeleteThis is my version of Katrina's Pemberley. We will have the pattern soon. I have used a wide variety of 1800s fabrics. A lot form my stash. We could put together a starter pack of fabric and you could to it as you go if you don't have a stash of 1889s. Thanks Sonja
