Over the last week I sewed down the binding on my Little Patchwork Village quilt. Looking back through my blog archives I discovered that the top was finished in January 2010!!
I remember seeing the quilt and buying the pattern at the Australasian Quilt Convention in Melbourne in March 2009.
I have always loved Rosalie Quinlan's designs and this is one of my favourites.
I always enjoy stitching her designs, particularly when they involve lots of redwork.
I was going to quilt it myself but last year decided to send it up to Sarah instead.
I didn't want the quilting to overwhelm the embroidered blocks so choose a large all-over stipple.
I choose the red check used in the centre block for the binding.
My current Rosalie Quinlan project is Scandinavian Rose. Hopefully it doesn't take me quite as long to finish.
So lovely Christine. I love this wallhanging.
