My sister, Nicola, was a quilter decades ago and has recently returned to it. With a vengeance! I wrote a post last summer about her quilting weekend at the cottage. It entailed mostly washing, ironing and cutting. Well she returned on Thanksgiving weekend with the completed quilt!

| She had intended to sew a picture panel into the centre but opted instead to learn to applique and the galleon looks great. |
 |
| She also appliqued the little compasses in each corner and |
 |
| cursed the waves. |
It is a lovely gift. Nicola is 3 for 3 this year having made this one, Chris and Jason's wedding quilt and
 |
| this quilt for Maya (that Avery seems to think is his) |
 |
| This called for a celebratory walk and drink on the beach. |
Thank you Nicky.
Wow the little compasses are so cute!! Jason and I love ours, it is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks to Chris for reminding me how much I love to sew and Carol you have always challenged me to experiment and this quilt was a wonderful stretch for me!
