I started Garden Weave April 2018. It started with all fabrics from one favourite shop and was augmented with a few bits from my 'stash'. It measures 90 x 110 inches and has a wool batt. It is warm. I had a couple of lovely sleeps under it and am keeping it.😊 I use wool batts when ever I can.
The motives in the plain squares were started with a tool I own called Circle Lord. I recently had the wheels on the long arm replaced with a ballbearing arrangement called Bliss. The Bliss system is great but now the Circle Lord aint what it used to be.
This quilt is large and used most of the frame, and because I can not get around both sides of the machine (one end against the wall) I could not engage the Circle Lord on the wall end, I would have had to turn the quilt. This scenerio annoyed me so much I pulled back from sewing Motives using Circle Lord and went freehand on a few. It all works in the end.
So now I need to re-think how I am going to accomplish spirals etc. in the future.
Some garden pictures, just because.
Happy Friday,
Gudrun
