Nine-Patch Doll Quilt (Freebie). Designer: Kathleen Tracy. Batting: Hobbs Tuscany cotton. Backing: Calico. Size: 14" x 18". Quilting: Hand quilted with Pearl No. 8 |
Red and Blue Shoo Fly. Designer: Kathleen Tracy (American Doll Quilts book). Batting: Mountain Mist Cream Rose cotton. Backing: Calico. Size: 13 1/2" x 17". Quilting: Hand quilted with Pearl No. 8 |
Both the doll quilts are completed. It now needs a wash in the washing machine to bring out all the puckering goodness when cotton batting is used.
Four baby kimonos are in progress using flannel. I did not use Heather Ross' pattern after all, too much grief. I went with Amy's of Habitual. Need to get them serged and I intend to use 3/4" satin ribbon as it's binding and ties.
1.5kg of rice and cotton wool for 2 projects i.e. weights for hand quilting and a sewing ham respectively.
Two wonderful quilts and adorable kimonoes!!!

Love, love those quilts!! BTW do further dry your rice in the oven for a while, as it is known for weevils to appear later if you just use the rice as it is!!
