The fronts are backed with a light layer of batting then quilted with random wavy lines in coloured embroidery threads.
And this quilt top is what I've been working on this week. It's once again a custom order and will eventually be making its way to Ireland . I pretty much had creative license on this baby girls quilt except that it should be predominately blue and the fabrics should have a very modern vibe to them so I have included fabrics from Amy Butler and Heather Bailey who just happen to be 2 of my favourite fabric designers.
I have used a traditional patchwork pattern called 'tumbler' and I thankfully had the foresight to cut out enough blocks to make 2 quilts so one will be up for sale in my online shops. I am planning to hand-quilt this little quilt in simple swirly circles.

Hi, I love the colours of your tumbler quilt. I have literally just put the borders on one this evening. I have made it into an I spy quilt so its quite bright and bold. I will blog it in a day or so once its quilted.
You have been busy - mustbe nice to know that a bit of your creativity will be winging it's way around the world. Happy Easter.
That's great to hear you are getting some custom orders. I can tell you are having fun making them. I want to make myself a tumbler block quilt one day. I even have a template. Now where is that elusive time? I am finding it hard to believe we are nearly in May again.
