A Bright and Breezy Finish

Another finish for you today.  I have been trying to get a photo of this one all week but the weather has not really been playing the game.  Every time I had the opportunity to get the camera out the wind would get up or the rain drops started to fall.  It was nice and bright this morning so this is the result.  I did have three or four attempts as the wind kept catching the corner.  I really enjoyed this one as mentioned in the previous post the fabrics were purchased in Canada and most of the piecing was done there.  The pattern was adapted from Growing Up Modern by Allison Harris. a lovely book with lots of quick, easy patterns suitable for children and adults alike.  Finished size is 43 x 50 ins and is backed with a nice turquoise fleece the same colour as the squares.  This one will be going on sale soon for Marie Curie Cancer Care.



Bright and Breezy

So the next project on the table is one for a young lad who has recently, well maybe not so recently now, had his bedroom redecorated with a red white and blue theme.  I made quilts for his little sisters last summer (You can see them on the gallery page.  The ones with the ladybird and butterfly)  so now its his turn.  




Happy Halloween Folks!
