My reproduction version of Lucy Boston's Patchwork of the Crosses is close to a finish. The top is done - and I have selected backing, binding and bought the wadding...
Here are some photos of the individual blocks:
This blogging is slow going for me at the moment (steep learning curve for the not-so-computer-savvy) so that is all for now. Back soon...
Hi Hilda. Welcome to blog land! I look forward to seeing your beautiful work and thanks for being a follower of mine. Chris
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris - you might notice a photo of the Mariner's Compass quilt in one of the photo collages in the last post ( from classes you gave in Berrima). I should have mentioned your name along with the others - sorry :(
DeleteAll the best
Hilda

Hi and welcome to blogging. I hope I got signed up as a follower - just recently started using bloglovin and not sure I did it right. Love you Patchwork of Crosses. I have all my material and paper foundation pieces and, along with two friends, will start my project tomorrow. I am so excited - hope it is as pretty as yours has turned out to be. Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work ! Wish I that good . Love the fusdy cutting.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful POTC blocks, I've just started and I love to make them.

Beautiful POTC blocks, So excited to get started on POTC blocks of my own..., any suggestions about how to prepare and get started??
ReplyDeleteYour work with POTC or Lucy Boston hexagons is wonderful. May I ask where you found the template for the elongated hexagons? I am looking everywhere for them, but have only found them on something called Inklingo of which I am unfamiliar.
