Thought you might like to see the quilted wall hanging made by my Mum this week.

House on the Hill - In the Country

It’s the “In the Country” quilt pattern from House on the Hill.  House on the Hill is the New Zealand based company who produce many beautiful patchwork and quilting patterns.  The designs are simple and easy to make from rustic country to quirky retro and vintage chic.  This wall hanging took my Mum 2 full days to make.

Large rainbow garden quilt

This quilt is the Rainbow Garden Quilt from the Kaffe Fassett book “Country Garden Quilts”.  Extra blocks were added to make a queen sized quilt approximately 95” wide by 82” long.  It looks so stunning;  we would never have thought of putting all these wonderful colours from Rowan’s Kaffe Fassett range into one quilt.

We made a second quilt the same size as in the book, i.e. 76” by 82” using the Rowan Bekah Green fabric for backing. This goes very well with all the colours, cooling them down a little and pretty enough to be able to turn the quilt over for a change.  The wadding used is the Quilters Dream Poly which is so soft, warm yet lightweight and of course practical as it is washable.  The pieces are joined together by machine and then the layers quilted using a variegated thread.  If you don’t have time to make your own, this one is available to buy on our website.
