Autumn Magic

Today's quilt is "Autumn Magic"inspiration came from pictures from one of many quilting books I look at, ...just which one I carn't remember...

I spent a few days with my friend Kama, she is an accomplished artist and showed me how to paint, or rather be confident to paint on fabric..relax and paint... so I watched her as she free

hand painted the trees on four panels. The fabric was commercially dyed, the leaves were put on using raw edge applique with my Gammill Plus quilting machine, then i used the quilting technique know as Drawing with Thread..

Quilt Diva

This quilt was very easy to make, I got the pattern and fabric..Moda Quilt Diva (a Jelly Roll) from http://www.annzmaterialworld.com/ the pattern was easy to read and follow and having the Jelly Roll ment the cutting time was cut down also.

Darling Trevor dropped into spotlight to pick up the black and was ticked off because a lady pushed in front of him " what she think I was doing there looking at the counter????" LOL

i quilted the quilt in the ditch and used dacron instead of cotton or wool because i wanted the high loft and cuddly look.

I made this quilt to take with me on Retreats....I was to go on one with Kerry http://www.myfavoritethings.com.au/ but i have to go back to hospital Again for a small opp.

I will make another quilt and pretend to be on retreat.

I am also making another quilt for Annz collection.
