More from our sewing day

Two excellent background fabrics are at play in Pat and Sharron’s distinctive quilts.

Pat started this quilt with the outer border, using 
fish shapes left over from her ‘Pickled  Fish’ 
quilt made in 2018-2019

The cross hatch grey background is a good foil 
for the Kaffe Fasset and other bright prints ...

... and for the embroidered felt flower shapes in the centre medallion

Sharron’s large hexagons are joined by a 

quilt-as-you-go process ...

The background fabric lends itself well to the process 

with an irregular pattern that helps the joins blend 

into the other shapes
