Vignette is quilted.

On Monday I went to pick up my quilts, Vignette and In my Garden, from my very talented quilter, Robyn of Plain and Fancy. I had chosen thread colours but really couldn't imagine how she was going to quilt them so left it up to her! She had done the most amazing job of both of them. I am so thrilled with them as the quilting has added so much to the quilts. You can click on the photos to make them bigger if you want to see the detail.
Here is Vignette.....almost finished other than for the binding.

Can't believe that I have made it!!!!! Just the binding and label to do. I have stitched a label ready to go on this quilt.

Happy stitching

The top is done!

Finally....after some slow piecing, the vignette quilt top is finished. It has been three years in the making so it feels very good to get it to this stage.

Finally....almost there

In between packing and minding lovely little men I have had a little time to stitch and am so pleased to have Vignette almost done! I put the little squares border on the centre block and then was able to put the first 3 rows together. The bottom row still needs the patchwork outer edge so that will have to wait till I get back from teaching on the cruise....starting tomorrow. Here it is. Can't wait till this one is finished. It is a lovely quilt but it has been a lot of work and I lost my motivation for a while. I haven't allowed myself to start any other BOMs (and I have a few in mind) till this and a few others are done!

Finally ....some progress

 After a long break, I finally put together the last piece of stitching for the Vignette quilt. I have left this quilt 3/4 done and haven't had time or the inclination to continue till now. There is still plenty of patchwork that needs doing but at least I am back working on the quilt.

We had a visit of Leanne and Gail here at our shop in Northern Norway a few years ago

Mrs Beasley's Sampler

I have finished block one and being I am still not a huge fan of Needleturn Applique

 I have decided to omit some and replace with stitchery.

Here is a closer look of the mini blocks

 

I still need to add something under the word Family 

but will wait to see what else is on the quilt before doing so.

Mrs Beasley's Sampler Quilt fabrics

Vignette Magazine arrived in Holland last week, and I immediately caved when I saw block 1 of Mrs Beasley's Sampler Quilt.

I raided my stash, and paid a quick visit to my favourite quilt store to add a few FQ's to the collection. More will be added as I go along.

I spent all evening yesterday cutting all my pieces and pinning them to a scan/print of the pattern. Now I need to choose my threads :o)

Is anyone else working on this project?
