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!
What a beautiful quilt.
