The sewing machine has been going full pelt and my sewing room looks like a bombsite, but there's been little quilting going on. It's panto season here in the UK and I have been busy sorting out the costumes for Ali Baba and the forty thieves. Luckily there weren't forty thieves to dress, but there were four pantomime dames - the proper dame plus three of her friends! Anyway, it was the first night last night, so apart from a few repairs, I've been able to do something for me.
Here is my Grand Illusion, so far. I've made all the blocks - I'm going for 16 - and just have to join them together. That's the easy bit!
I'd just like to share a block made by a member of 'Quilting Together' in Shepshed (Paula and I went there to collect Linus quilts, but that's another story).
She felt the block was too busy for her, so calmed it down with a pink centre. Good idea.
