In my last post I showed how I store and display some of my
excessively (never!) rather large number of quilts that lurk all over the house.
From some of your comments and questions I thought you might like better photos of some of these quilts - so here goes.
This one is hanging in a hallway. Lots of different techniques for hand and machine in the top, and lots of opportunity for much-needed machine quilting practice too!

Below is an oldie - just folded on display. I made it in 1930's repro fabrics and hand quilted - finished around 1990:
Next is a quilt hanging in the hallway - a pattern called Jester by Karen Cunningham

Here is another Karen Cunningham pattern - called
Bum'bel-bee. Hand and machine pieced, and machine quilted. It is hanging on the wall in the study - behind me right now!

The quilt below lives folded on my bed and is all EPP hexagons, apart from the outer floral border. It was my version of another Karen Cunningham pattern - Cream Tea. As you may have guessed, for a couple of years I went to regular classes held locally by the very talented Karen.

Blogger is starting to behave very strangely - bored with quilt photos I think! I should take the hint. Maybe more quilt tour photos next post??
