Perhaps they are purely designed to be works of art hung on a wall to show his skills.<br /><br />CW - Enjoy!<br /><br />Kath - all applique as far as I know.<br /><br />MM - as you will see from the cootie quilt (now on show) all I can save is fragments of its memory in bits of the quilting pattern. It is quite rotten. I am surprised it wasn't just taken to the dump - but to include it in an auction box!!!<br /><br />Weaver - I just don't have the design skills - I am a copier only!<br /><br />Em - yes, it is rather nice.<br /><br />Jan - your wish is my command!<br /><br />Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-15656200336821579952013-06-19T08:12:26.411-07:002013-06-19T08:12:26.411-07:00I look forward to seeing some pictures of your old...I look forward to seeing some pictures of your old welsh quilt too.

I personally am absolutely bowled over by his bold use of colour, both in his quilts and his embroider/needlepoint. I would never dare to be as daring.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-26391039983831616692013-06-18T15:24:40.088-07:002013-06-18T15:24:40.088-07:00Kaffe Fasset fabrics are too bold for my taste, bu...Kaffe Fasset fabrics are too bold for my taste, but I am very intrigued with the way clever quilters can utilize them to full effect. I enlarged the photo of the log cabin effect quilt and think I'm seeing a construction of 'triangle-squares' with the rows of diagonal quilting stitches creating the logs [?]<br />It sounds as though the "Cootie Quilt" was a grand creation in its day--sad that it wasn't better cherished and preserved. Is there enough for a cushion, or to salvage a chunk for mounting and framing?Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-56262933061592841402013-06-18T13:48:12.088-07:002013-06-18T13:48:12.088-07:00Lovely bold colours!
