My first quilted
wallhanging with applique.
Made for Daniel, the son of a friend.
I
prepared him for his Bar Mitzvah and taught him Hebrew.
This was to mark
the occasion. |
|
The first large
quilt I made was for our son's 21st
birthday, a so-called 'freedom' quilt.
He chose the colours himself and designed
one of the blocks.

|
My second quilt was
for my mother in Holland,
made with Dutch folklore fabrics, many from
Staphorst. |
|
The third quilt I
made was for our daughter's 21st birthday.
She wanted an Amish type quilt,
with Bible texts around a picture in the centre. |

"Dear Jane"
Quilt.
The quilt I am making now is for my husband, and it is a replica of
a quilt made by
Jane Stickle in 1863 during the Civil War in America.

Since the end of
December 2006 I have started Baltimore blocks.
I am using Elly
Sienkiewicz' book Baltimore Beauties and Beyond Vol. 1,
and am working
through the twelve lessons in it. |
