    Default Harriet's Journey Quilt.
    I entered my Harriet's Journey into the National Championships at Sandown and yesterday I won " Best Sampler Quilt. As you ca imagine I am thrilled to bits ! The book - of the same name is by Jennifer Chiaverini and I also used Moda "Holly Woods " fabric and 80/20 wadding !

    Congratulations on winning! My late sisters name was Harriet and so I had to google the pattern to see what it looked like. As with the Dear Jane quilt, it's more than I want to take on at this point in my life. Glad you had the perserverance to do it. I'm sure it will be a treasured heirloom.

    Congratulations! That is a gorgeous quilt! I love the patriotic feel to it (UK and USA). How long did it take for you to make it?
