Soma over at Whims And Fancies is hosting an online quilt trunk show.

HERE I thought that it would be fun to join in, here are some of the quilts I have made over the last couple of years. Embroidery seems to have taken over my life lately, looking at these I am really itching to start quilting again!

And finally, a lot of time was taken up these last two years with a group project to celebrate the 800th Anniversary of the sealing of the Magna Carta. I was one of 25 quilters who made these stunning quilts. They are just back from Houston, so they are very well travelled! You can find out more on our website

The Dear Jane is my favorite. Every version of the quilt has appealed to me.

ReplyDeleteAn incredible display, and to think so many of them are Hand quilted! Fantastic! I especially liked the 9 patch quilt where they are connected by triangles. It took me a minute to figure out the geometry! The grid of stars looks like it's dancing! Beautiful! I love the giant feathered star too, what a beautiful border Fab!! cheers!
