I finished this small quilt weeks ago but forgot to show you; it's all hand made with reproduction fabric.
The pattern is from Kathleen Tracy's book 'Remembering Adelia'
Remembering Adelia was inspired by the diary kept by a young woman during the civil war. her diary had been, locked in a trunk an a family's attic for over 100 years.

Today I went out with my camera to look for spring-things, this is what I found.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenIk heb ook een boek van Kathleen Tracy ( de eerste van deze serie denk ik ...)
Kijk ook veel op haar blog, vooral toen het quilten nog helemaal nieuw voor me was, maar nog niets uit gemaakt , ... ik ben (nog?) niet zo van de patronen (om er aan te beginnen denk ik ..., wel om naar te kijken !!!
Mooie randstof ook ... en de geappliceerde bloemblaadjes (sinaasappelpartjes ...) :o))
