The Gold Fold Quilt is Done


I started this quilt back in June before my sewing room (spare bedroom) became the pantry and storage room for four months during the house fix last year. As I said in my first blog post about this quilt, I was inspired by Margreth's quilt for Texas.So after a mere 7 months - which must be some kind of record for me - it's finished. And here are 14 photos to show it off -






 








It measures about 180 x 206cm. It's 3 cm longer on one side than the other. Oops. It's hand quilted with #8 Eleganza thread and backed with a 2013 Denyse Schmidt off the shelf. I bought maybe four fabrics to complete this quilt as I didn't have any white and blues, and everything else is off the shelf. I do like this quilt.

The Gold Fold Quilt

My other summer holiday project has been quilting The Gold Fold quilt, formerly known as Blue Equilaterals.



It's been made so much easier with my new old quilting hoop stand I acquired from Monday Modern-er Heather. It takes the weight of the quilt off my arms. Love it!
