Inge's Quilt




This quilt was my first applique experience, a labour of love for my sister who was celebrating a milestone birthday. She chose the pattern and we both chose the fabric. She loved it as do I, was a very heavy quilt to quilt on the machine as we found the backing from an op shop, a very heavy fabric which were curtains fom Ikea. There is a mistake in the quilt which my sister is so eager to find but cannot, a bit of fun. She has it in her motor home and says it is a perfect weight for travelling up north of Australia as it has cotton batting.

With the leftover scraps my sister Inge  made two of these cushion covers, they look fabulous Inge!
