Traditional quilt


I haven't made a quilt like this for a very long time. My aunt was 90 this week so I decided at the last minute to make her a lap quilt. It is a little larger than the usual size, 45cm x 45cm and  I was determined to use up some of my commercial fabrics which I tend not to use these days. Inevitably I had to buy some more - you never have enough of the right colour. It has turned out rather bright but I hope she likes it. My mother will be 90 in January so I shall make her one too. Its very strange to think that they are the last of that generation in the family - more memories!
