Winter exhibition

Look what you van create with the patterns and blocks from our book.
The first three quilts are from the very beginning of our Paper-Pieced Garden adventure. The design didn't fit on the book pages...but we used elements of it.
The green one is the original and the blue ones from students in 2010.

Daffodils or Christmas?

 If you simply change the fabrics, flowers and appliqué pattern  you go from the original daffodil quilt to a Christmas one...I love the background fabrics, it makes the quilt fresh, but also with an antique look.
Don't forget to make your own version of a Winter/Christmas quilt for the show in Nieuwegein (november 2014)

If you want to see our quilts: the next opportunity is the Exhibition "Tuingeluk" organised by the Dutch Quiltersguild.
For more information see their website: www.quiltersgilde.nl
We have workshops and demo's during all the 4 days of the show.
