Patchwork first - fabrics for the Heritage William Morris Quilt


Just a short post this evening to show you the quilt I am going to make for our bed/  I won't be starting it much before the autumn (at my patchwork class) but my darling daughters decided to take me fabric shopping at Calico Kate's wonderful shop in Lampeter, and of course it had to be fabric for THIS quilt!



This photo (sorry about the glare from the flash) gives you an idea of the overall design, with a close-up below.  The range of William Morris fabrics (Kelmscott) doesn't seem to be generally available to buy yet, so I chose William Morris fabrics I liked and will look for some more to add to (or instead of) patterns already chosen. 



Above and below - the fabrics my daughters bought me.  We had such fun choosing them, and laying them out on a table to see what was going with what.  There are a couple of prints I chose just because I liked them (my girls were saying, go on mum get that one or this one!) and will be used in other projects.  The red fabric in the photo above is one of those.
