Saturday Photohunt - Colourful



A quilting group meets at Linden and we have several of their group quilts hanging on the walls. There are four covering the seasons: this one is summer.

That's lovely, my mum used to do quilting, I don't remember ever seeing a finished one though, she just seemed to make the squares.

I want to quilt - I love the outcome! But, not sure how.... could learn I guess - but then there is always the issue of not taking the time.

I love it! There's something warm and fuzzy about being under a handmade quilt....

Patricia said...

That is so pretty. I have always wanted to sew a quilt. Someday! Have a great weekend.

Lee said...

That certainly is a work of art. What patience it must take to create something like that.

Gorgeous! I love quilts-each one has it's own special story to tell. Your post made me want to get out all of the quilts my Grandmother has made for me and photograph them!

OH, quilts each have their very own personality..this is a colorful personality!

What a beautiful quilt. It's definitely summery.

By the way, Liz, the Australia v Wales game start in an hour. Gonna watch it or will you be sleeping?

Good luck...but, Australia's gonna win...grin.

Liz Hinds said...

Robyn, I'll be watching it! In the pub because it's on Sky and we don't have Sky.

I have to admit I had nothing to do with the making of the quilt: I don't even sew on butttons if I can help it!

But we have a very talented group of quilters.

Quilts are so cool. I wish my wife would learn how to make one but I just don't think she has the drive to learn. I like yours, it's very nice.

Hi Liz,
That's a beautiful quilt. Gorgeous colours. I'm a quilter so I know how much work goes into those things. I put a photo of my garden up for this.
