| Round Robin quilt |
Yes it has been a relaxing 3 day weekend, sunny for 2 days but grey with misty rain today- a day for doing some stitching. Anniversary Day is celebrated in our province on the nearest Monday to the 23 March. The colours of our province are blue and gold. Some years back I was in a round robin quilt exchange. I liked the Carolina Lily block and so made it in blue and yellow and here is a picture of the quilt that I received back after it had done the rounds. I really need to quilt it and finish it but haven't ever decided how I want to do that so it has been hiding in the cupboard. (maybe should have pressed it first!! and the sun was shining through it when I put it on the clothesline to take the photo) perhaps I should set the target to do this by Anniversary Day next year to get myself moving on it!!
Hey Lyn, yes, set that target because it looks beautiful now, and will be stunning when quilted.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt reminds me of a stained glass window with the sun shining through it like that. Blue and gold are Otago colours aren't they?
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt top......will we see it quilted by next anniversary day??
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great day off! Our work observe Southland anniversary day today - seems like noone can make their mind up which day it should be! Your quilt top is beautiful, look forward to seeing it in a years time. lol
