Finished at last! One jelly roll (Fabric Freedom Spice Trail) plus some plain cream and lots of old sheeting (instead of stabiliser.) 38 blocks, pieces, quilted and backed ITH and then ladder stitched together by hand. My intention was that this would lie on top of a plain duvet cover on my bed, but it looks good on the sofa so that is where it is staying. I suppose I need to start one for the bed now......

Not too long. I did most of it while sitting in the sun and it was very relaxing.

3034A lot of work, but it looks so fabulous. Like it on the sofa. Will you use the same colours for your bedroom?. The stitching on the pale colour is terrific really finishes it of. Sandra.

There will definitely be brown - but I haven't decided what else. Spice colours really are my favourite of most places in the house.
