Another Quilt


As I have worked all day and finished nothing I thought I would post another quilt.Again I used some recycled silk as well as some mens ties for the striped blocks. I had fun first drawing all the flowers and creatures to machine stitch for the border.I used and still do my old Toyota machine. Its so old it only does straight stitches and zig zag but with the free motion foot I can do curves as well,I live in fear the motor will give up. I have a new Brother and use it when I make my dolls but have never really got to grips with all the complicated things it does.

  4. Hello Gill
    My first visit here - WOW Love your beautiful silk quilts. I also make lots of quilts using silks, recycled saris and I adore the old Indian sari braids. Your work is really appealing and very pretty. Keep it going.
