"Mindfulness"
Made for my wonderful mother for her birthday.
Every border was quilted differently, with the inner section done in a cross hatch, then in the 1st border stippling, 2 lines in the 2nd, then a stipple in the 3rd border, a continuous leaf pattern for the 4th, another stipple in the 5th, and then another straight line all the way around for the last. I did a wide binding and I'm so glad I did, I think it sets off the whole quilt nicely!
I used a bamboo/cotton batting which was a dream to work with.
I am so proud of myself, I really love this quilt and I had a hard time parting with it!
But the fact that my wonderful mummy, really, really loved it sure made it a whole lot easier!
That's beautiful! I really, really like the colours - very natural looking. Its great!!
