What quilt is on your bed??

Lynette Anderson asked what quilt was on my bed. Well I have my Candlewick quilt that was sort of the beginning for my whole quilting adventure. I say its an adventure as I am discovering new things along the path and its all very exciting. I am making wonderful friends and making lots of different sewn projects. I am so glad I decided to make quilting and sewing my hobby.

We have moved from this house where this photo was taken and its not the best but you can get an idea.

I started it about 8 yrs ago and finished it about 4 yrs ago now. I had to make cushions to match.

  5. Hi, sorry about the comment page, but couldn't find your email anywhere. Thank you for your comment. We have the shrinking sheet for $33 per metre @ 120cm wide. Its such fun, a bag would be excellent!
