Almost Finished...

Tomorrow I add the last edge and so the top will be completed. 

Then just wait for a nice sunny day to take a picture that does justice to the colors!

Blogger Quilt Festival-Spring edition

This year for the Spring edition of the Blogger's Quilt Festival I want to share a quilt that tell about friendship.

We were only people who loved quilting, Claudia, Sandra, Sonia, Luciana and I.

We only met us sometime at the same quilt-shop.

Then one day we decided to start a project together to make in the same time...a Star of Bethlehem.

We were intimidated to this pattern and to make it together gave us more courage.

It was the2007.

Believe me, all our Stars turned out simply wonderful but the better thing has been that we have become true friends.

Now we meet us every time is possible even if we live in different town and even if we are all different for age, work, and life. But we share much more as the simply quilting passion now.

This is the magic of patchwork and this is the magic of friendship.

Night stars

It seems as a summer night sky full of stars!

Return

I have had a lot to do after 10 days of vacation....a lot washing machines to do, a big heap of clothes to press, to begin working again, to cuddle a lot Lavinia, a lot of kisses to give to Trudy, and so on. But, of course, I have had a few time for the patchwork too.

I have made 2 new months for the wool felt blanket...(12-mounths-blanket)

March with a different rabbit shape (I think it needs more colors...)

and December that I have changed all...

and also I have decided the background for the incomplete mounths.

I would make a sampler quilt with some patches in yellow and blue to explain my second level patchwork class.

Did you remember my generous friend Claudia?(http://quitycat-quiltycat.blogspot.com/2009/03/busy-week.html) She have made the last appliquè patch for me...did I say to you how generous(..and able) she is? ;-)

Trudy is happy with her new cat grass bowl.
