I Made A. .. Q U I L T!

Yes friends, you read right, this non quilt maker made a quilt!And... I love it to bits!!

Disappearing Nine-Patch Lap Quilt, purchased as a kit earlier in the year from Patchworks Plus, Tasmania.


I found it to be a great learning project in trying to get my seams joins super-accurate.

Measures 48inches square


Many of you will be familiar with the fabrics; it's Vintage Modern... charm squares some extra. I had long admired this range, but never had an idea of what I would make.


Site Manager always on hand to perform quality comfort testing!I sent it back to Patchworks Plus for Sarah to work her quilting magic on it... don't you love the bubbles?!
Thank you so much Sarah, the quilting is just perfect x



I think these are my best ever binding corners.The grey fabric with red flowers is the backing.

Love It. Love It. Love It.

This one is a few firsts for me... first kit quilt... first time of getting something professionally quilted... first time of using a whole range of fabrics instead of just a few... first time sewing a project using mostly pre-cut fabric...
I wanted to challenge myself to a few things, I learned a lot.

Being that this is actually the 3rd quilt I've made (the others are here here) perhaps I can call myself a 'maker of simple quilts'... yes? Maybe 'non quilt maker' is not quite accurate any more?

Especially because I am already planning my next one!!
