Mum's quilt

This quilt belongs to my mum, its a Bronwyn Hayes pattern, I forget the name of it. Mum spent many hours doing the stitcheries and putting the quilt together then she sent it to me to quilt for her, I have done a stipple all over except on the stitcheries, I think it turned out really well, I'll be posting it to you very soon mum. This block is my favourite,

What a great idea to stipple it I have often wondered what I'd do with my stitching quilts looks really good

It's very pretty quilt. The more I see of these lovely stitcheries the more I am tempted to give them a try.

Happy Stitching...Ann :)

Hi Leanne, long time no see! I love the quilt! What kind of machine do you use to stipple? Just your regular sewing machine or one of those new fan dangle quilting ones? I want to hone my stippling skills this year so do tell.

As for The Waltons....I have been watching it since September on this channel: http://www.visiontv.ca/Programs/family_sept.html It is the Vision channel. But since you don't live on this side of the world, I'm not sure that you have this station. :(....I love my Waltons!

Well, I gotta rush off to work. We are in a deep freeze here...-45 celcius for 3rd day :(...what's it over there?
