We loved seeing two Fairholme quilters’ quilts hanging in the Sydney Quilt Show at the weekend. Jenn @pennypoppleton’s ‘Alexandria’ and Stephanie @craftypinkcreates’s ‘Colour Explosion’ were both made during the pandemic and finished in time for this first show in three years. Jenn used a treasured collection of Heather Ross fabrics, and @talesofcloth’s pattern. Stephanie reached for her boldest, most exuberant colours to counteract the mundanity of lockdowns, and ‘crown’ shaped EPP papers, and stitched them together to her own design. Both quilts are English paper pieced and hand quilted.
