Single Girl Quilt

This quilt is divine. But sadly, I didn't make it.
I wanted to, but realised I probably didn't have the attention span or time or adequate attention to detail to do so. Instead, I asked mum to make it for me. She has made three quilts for us now. One for Adele and two for the boys. This one is for me. Maybe the husband will get one next...
I purchased the fabric for this quilt last year. Most is Denyse Schmidt Flea Market Fancy. Some is from the Denyse Schmidt Spotlight collection. I love the mix of fabric colours and I love the white. Mum even quilted this for me!
I'm so happy to have this on my couch for winter.

Thanks Mum!

  6. What a great gift from mom! I am not a huge fan of quilting either. I did make a quilt top, erm, three years ago. I've yet to to quilt it, though. I may have to pay someone to do it for me.
