Last year I was lucky enough to meet Deb and I'm sure you've all heard of her. No doubt you've also recently read about the Blessing Deb project. A week or two ago the call was put out to donate items for an auction.
After a lot of um-ing and ah-ing I decided to make up a quilt to contribute.
I dreamt up the design (literally - I woke up with the pictures and numbers in my head at 4am one morning!) and got on with making it over the weekend.
It wasn't without it's challenges - needle failures, backing failures, etc - but... despite the hiccups, the top came together, my walking foot got a good workout with the straight-line quilting, binding sewn on, and now it's done!
The details:
Top: Various fabrics from my stash
Middle: A lovely warm woolen blanket.
Backing: Pretty soft sheet
Size: 56" x 56" (142 cm x 142cm)
Next week it will be auctioned. Check out the details on the Facebook page, and if you like it, please bid on it! I hope it goes to a home that will love it as much as we do : )
What have you been up to? Making lots? Having school holiday fun?
Looking forward to seeing your makings and creatings!
Have a happy day
