I have started a new quilt that will be destined to be a snuggle quilt in our new fifth wheel. I just love the hand embroidery on quilt patterns of Aussie quilters and since I had such fun with the hand work on the last quilt, I decided it would be nice to sit outside and make these blocks. Here is the first start:
The pattern is from the magazine, Quilt Sampler ( spring/Summer 2010 ) called "Times Remembered" designed by Sharon Reilly. The pattern is in redwork with some of the blocks in pink muslin. I decided to embroider with colours and on white 2oo count muslin and have picked different fabrics to match.
the first block.... summer day.... sitting in a comfy lawn chair under a canopy of tree leaves, cool breeze... stitching away with a cool drink beside you and gentle music playing in the background.....hmmmmmm
