Piecemakers Times and Seasons Calendar 1999


I have recently quilted this beauty for Marg (which is a gift for her son for his significant birthday). It is the 1999 Piecemakes Times and Seasons calendar. There is a huge amount of needleturn and reverse applique in this quilt and her choice of colours and textures is a work of art in itself!


The sky in the top pic (not well shown, sorry) has a seam down the middle and Marg has matched the pattern perfectly.
It is quilted freehand with textures, until the outside borders where I have used a fish p2p from Kerryn Emmerson (www.kerrynemmerson.com), an anchor from Sweet Dreams Quilt Studio, and a rope from Laurie Thomas (www.itsaquiltthing.com). Worked beautifully to frame this nautical quilt.
See you later
Belinda
