Loving your colour choices here Di
Great start to retirement. Did you hand piece all these?
Magazine choices are very limited in UK and can be expensive. I saw one in W.H.Smith for £11.99. Lovely colour combinations for that top.
That was quick. What a lovely top
Gorgeous!
I get a number of US quilt magazines but some I am thinking of letting go when the subscription ends because they are more and more written for machine piecers and quilters and fused applique.
That is lovely!
I gave up buying UK quilting magazines ages ago, because all they do is is replicate stuff that's been done before. I do like to buy Quiltmania sometimes, even though it's so expensive, because it's just a lovely magazine. But this year I'm keen to go through the patterns I've torn out and either use them, ditch them or only keep them if I really think I will use them. I need more space in my sewing room!
That's fab , well done !!!!
Love the quilt like it is with no border. Could you bind it to match the background block colours?
