Here's some pics of my work!

A picture quilt made of squares and triangles then embellished with appliquÃ© and some embroidery. Have written sunflower in english, dutch and french as my OH is dutch and we live in france - also latin to be botanically correct! Hand pieced and quilted.

Thanks so much - although my Dad says the house is wonky and must be suffering from subsidence - men! Mind you, he also says 'what's the point in cutting fabric up in bits and sewing them back together?' Doohhh!

I got some blue and white fabric on a trip to Holland and made this inspired by Delft plates.

Thanks everyone - I AM pleased with my work - most of the time, it's just when I go to exhibitions, everything always looks nicer then mine, quilting stitches neater and smaller etc; i guess I just want to be perfect and can't! But all your kind comments are a real boost; thanks again!
