This quilt shows it all! What a wonderful example. <br />The more pictures I see on your great blog here, Pippa, the more I want to keep this tradition of hand quilting and wholecloth quilts alive. I am a lucky person because I can spend almost the whole day to care for it and I am really grateful.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12696241343855169123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738660161076439950.post-11364358455044373832011-05-18T16:05:02.177+01:002011-05-18T16:05:02.177+01:00It is such a joy to visit your site and see these ...It is such a joy to visit your site and see these beautiful quilts.

Today it seems like my time is used up before I begin so I don't have the leisure to spend hours and hours quilting delightful designs. I do hand quilt, but the designs are much simpler and faster. I think part of the time thing is that I try to stuff too much into each minute making the minutes fly.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423024947233260195noreply@blogger.com
