Laura's Quilt

Laura's quilt is one of the Christmas presents I still need to finish. I just got it out of the bag that I brought it home in from Christmas Day (!) and took a few photos. It's draped on the couch which is why it looks a bit upside down. I've tried to do some free-motion quilting as I've decided that this year is the year I will learn to quilt more than straight lines.




If you look at the Flickr Chinese Coins group you will see that this back is fairly unimaginative, but then she doesn't know that! Worked well with all the bits of pink fabric I had. Laura has a sign in her room that says "If it's Not Pink, it's not Worth Having".

Luckily it's not quilt weather here in Australia, so there isn't a great deal of pressure.

  3. I cannot imagine there ever being much pressure for quilts in Qld! On the other hand, for sheer comfort... well a quilt is always welcome!
