I received the quilt last night from Helen Hayes of Victoria, who is a lovely lady and a master quilter!
Here are some detailed shots of the quilt (I cannot photograph the whole quilt yet as I have no where to hang it until it is bound):
This is the centre. Helen has quilted beautiful little feathers around the large scallops and in the spaces around the hexagon flowers. I love it.
Here is the detail on the "fussy cut" scallop border and my coffin shape border.
Here is a selection of the outside blocks which are all slightly different. Helen has quilted a row of semi-circle scallops around each block and then swirly fills and beautiful details on some of the applique.
These are the corner blocks, repeating some of the motifs from the centre:
Thank you so much Helen for the magnificent job you have done on the quilting of my quilt. I appreciate all the time and thought you have put into every little detail. K xx
It is beautiful Katrina, oh to live a little closer!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Raewyn, I wish you did too.
DeleteLove your new quilt, Katrina. May I ask what fabric range you have used? Love it.
ReplyDeleteHi Kerry, I did not use a fabric range for "Lambton". The scallops are "fussy cut" from a range called Hope Chest by Edyta Sitar and the floral border is from Moda's Collections for a Cause "Love. Apart from this, I collected lots of fabrics in the colours I was using: gold, orange, red, brown and teal. Regards, Katrina x
