Hi, I have been living in Moscow, Russia for 1½ year. Now, when home again, I made this quilt in paper-piecing.
It was a big job, but paper-piecing is fun and easy. I am new, so I hope it works with the photo :?: :) |
Wow Wow and wow
What a beautiful piece of work!! |
Beautiful!!! Wonderful!!! Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaabulous!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Your PP quilt is just georgous, I too have the bug for PP. I've started a (don't laugh) Christmas wall hanging it's coming along very nicely. Wouldn't mind having a bash at yours one day. Oh yes I almost forgot welcome to the board from Nottingham, UK :D Tisha |
WOW!! Fabulous! :)
|
That is eye-poppingly gorgeous! :shock: Did you get this pattern in Russia?
|
How nice :D
Thanks to all of you. No, I did not get the pattern in Moscow. I make all my patterns from photos or drawings. St.Basil is from a postcard. If any of you wants my free patterns, you can get them here: http://www.norregaard-nielsen.com |

Hi Moonpi
I only work with streight lines. I love paper-piecing because even very small details is easy to make. It is much easier than I think you think. I will try to make a photosection of my way to do paper-piecing - I think the same way as most others. |
You did a Wonderful job. It is very pretty. I have no idea what Paper Piecing is. I'll have to read about it.
|
hi scrap quilter.
Paper-piecing is easy. It took me 3 month to get the AHA. :idea: Since then I have been addicted :) |
WOW, that is absolutely gorgeous. A Piece of art!!

Unfortunately DH only does flying one night trips and spends most of that in meetings but he has visited the Hermitage and said it was amazing. I'll go with him one day, just haven't had the chance yet! K x |
You do fabulous work! And welcome from Roscoe, Illinois USA. I wish I was as creative as you!
|
Unfortunately DH only does flying one night trips and spends most of that in meetings but he has visited the Hermitage and said it was amazing. I'll go with him one day, just haven't had the chance yet! I love St. Petersburg. So much history, so many beautiful buildings and the food was wonderful. I would love to go back again. The boat cruise on the waterways is a wonderful way to travel. The other time I visited, we took the train from Moscow to St. Petersburg. |
Jette,
That is a beautiful rendition of St. Basil's. Have you thought of doing one of The Church of Our Savior on Spilled Blood (I think I have the name right) in St. Petersburg? It is not as recognizable as St. Basil's, but I think it is beautiful. Do you plan to make the pattern for St. Basil's available? |

If you are used to make paper-piecing, this will not be a problem. If you write me: [email protected] I will send it to you. |
