A look back.
Not much progress so a look back at some old stuff.
Whist doing City and Guilds I did this based on the work of Welsh artist Iwan Bala.
It is based on Ogmore Castle which is 5 minutes down the road from my house.
Seeing this now, I realise how much I have learnt since then and if it was still in my possession I would have to put some stitching on the top!
I think it is a subject that I would like to return to in the future.
I did have more pictures to show you but the internet is not co-operating today and I am beginning to lose the will to live!
Much better than the first quilts I made, lol.
ReplyDeleteWhen I do my hand piecing, I don't use paper, still don't get that, lol. I just place the edges together and do tiny running stitches to piece them. I do mark the backs with a 1/4".

I just started following your site... the banner alone is enough to make me want to see more of your work. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be fun to re-do one of the older quilts? sometimes I look at one of mine and think - how would that look if I would do it again, today? One day I'll give it a try ;-)) Anyway, I like the quilt you show today !!
ReplyDeleteI love going back to see old quilts I gave as gifts. After the embarrassment wanes, I start to feel greatful about my progressing skills.
