I
love my Mum!
How
much I love her, has been cemented with the birth of my own daughter. I don’t recall ever making her anything other
than the usual pencil and clag covered ‘love letters’ we wrote as children, and
certainly, never something like a quilt.
I
am rectifying this, immediately.
I
free motion quilted in a loose, flowery, stipple. In some places the flowers look more like
butterflies.
For
the back, I used a dotty minky. It is
luxurious and divine to touch and snuggle under.
Pretty
swirls, fruit and flowers in fabric with coral, aqua, olive, black and cream.
A
better shot of the back, which shows up the quilting lines a bit better.
Perfect
joins on the binding!
I
hand stitched the binding, with the final stitches being placed today following
an exhilarating morning at AusKick.
Master
6 had his first kick in a game, which follows the handball, kicking, marking
and running drills.
30 meters, dead eye, through the center!
In his usual style, no emotion … yet he was a
tired and happy boy tonight.
