I've been quiet the last week as I've been quilting as much as possible. I've got 9 done despite my machine having a strop. There was a bright side to even that. i got chatting to a new friend who turned out to be an APQS service engineer, and a very nice lady. I still have a lot of quilts to do but I can move in the house now. The quilt in the picture belongs to one of my students. I like her quilts as they as well behaved, but this one had quite challenging instructions. There were areas I had to avoid. That left me with some very odd shapes to quilt. The back shows quite clearly what I came up with. We were both pleased with the result.

Sewing and snow.
Well I know a lot of people don't like this weather but I love it. Especially [as we had to go shopping today. I was not looking forward to the crowds. The snow solved my problem, Watford has been busy, but more like a summer weekday than a Chrismas weekend. A massive improvement. All the present shopping is now done and we are slowly making our way home.

Ferret, I love the back of that quilt and can see that sometimes she might display it that way. I can only imagine what the front was like.
Nice winter photo where you are ~ I've been enjoying everyone's pictures of their view of the season.
I'll ask Jane for a picture of the front. It's just two fabrics, where I have quilted it is dark purple and the bit's I missed are all a very busy oriental print of fans.
