My quilting

This week I have started to make my quilt for the festival of quilts, I am doing the owl and pussy cat as my theme, I have dyed the fabric for the actual quilt and made the quilt up, I am now making the owl and pussy cat figures, it is going to be approx. 1mt x 75cm, this is to be my second time to take part. The work has be finished by the end of the month, as the weather is not looking any brighter I have something to keep me busy.

This sounds very interesting. Will you post some pictures or will you have to keep it under wraps until the festival of quilts has started?

Hi again Mavis, I will be looking forward to seeing the owl soon!

Thanks for your comments on Miss Lucy's hairdo and mum's pressies. Yes, I did make the felt myself - I'm still on a learning curve with feltmaking - I only started a few weeks ago, but it is quite a relaxing and therapeutic process! x
