Crimped Quilt

a
Barbara has really got the hang of quilt making with
recycled materials.
This is her Crimped Cut Edged Quilt, made from
recycled pyjamas and t-shirts.
It is a really cosy quilt and feels so soft.
Well done Barbara!

KNit Wits Class, Quilts



As most people know I love recycling and these students
quilts show it at it's best.
The top one, Adventure Hero's started off from the scraps
of boys bedroom curtains!
They have been cut into blocks and then assembled.
It was supposed to be a quillo but in the excitement of making
became a single bed quilt which it's new owner
just adores!
The Nine blocks are made from recycled fabrics
that a grandmother has made and kept. They have now been
divided into 4 (4 grand daughters).
Each quilt has the same patterning with a blue or yellow
square in each corner.
Borders on all 4 will look stunning and what a
special sentiment and connection.
Warms the cockles of your heart!

Gallery Day 5th October 2010

A busy day at the Gallery.
Lots of creating!
Pat had finished recycling some artwork that I
persuaded her to NOT to to put in the
children recycle bin.
She did some embellishing on the machine.
Cut it up into sections and then embellished some more.
Here are the cards she has made.
They are each works of art.
See more card making and mixed media inspiration
on my website.
