Today I finally got back into my studio and created. Really it all started yesterday when we (Hutchins Quilters) had our first get together for the year. We sewed a lot and we laughed til it hurt! Our theme for lunch was Italian. Yum! I forgot to ta photos of our lunch but I did find this little fellow taking great interest in what we were doing. I think he ended up joining in!
This is the little quilt I sandwiched and quilted while we laughed and chatted.
Today I put the backing and the facing on to it today.
This is the first of six (I'm going to make 12) challenge quilts for a group I belong to. We are making quilts based on other counties in the world - not Australia and they have to be 12 x 12.. That is the only criteria. A very open ended challenge. I have decided on a theme of rock art. This one is Sweden.
There are Viking long boats, Otter people and a man with a hunting horn.
This little quilt is a completely different story.
I have joined a group of eight (?) others who are printers. This is my first "page", I hope.
He is a wood cut. I do hope he is up to scratch. I will find out soon. I will be making 11 of him!
