I am working on a couple of quilts now - where do you get the time. I have made new tool that makes a really cool block 13.5" (pictured) Not sure what to call it yet.

Meanwhile everyone likes a picture, so thought I would post my wifes quilt, "Every Quilter Dreams"
150 hand dyed fabrics, 4083 pieces, 83" x83". It was shown in Houston, 2006 (finalist in QNM, EQ competition) and then Chicago 2007 before coming home to Australia.

I love that block you made! Beautiful quilt.

Ducky 01-13-2010 07:17 AM

That first one is simply amazing! When you say it's your wife's quilt, does that mean you made it for her or she made it? It's no wonder it's been around the world. How long did it take to complete it?

And I love the second picture. All points are so precise and beautiful.

Bill, anytime you want to post pictures for us, we'd love it!!!!

Esqmommy 01-13-2010 07:20 AM

Wow. I have the same questions as Ducky. Also, what's the tool like? Are you going to market it?

I have same questions. That quilt is gorgeous and the new block is to die for. Can see it done in batiks. If you publish the pattern I will be the first in line to buy it.

That's pretty special Bill!! She's a lucky lady!

I designed the Block (still looking for a name)I am making my first quilt using this block and a variation of it. We manufacture the tools to make the block. They will be available by end of week at www.westalee.com
My wife made the stunning quilt. Leonie made it in 4 months and quilted it on a domestic machine in two days (spent the next two days at the ostipath) She has been quilting for over 30 years.
