Here it is….I worked like a trooper yesterday and Hopscotch<\/em> is done! It’s a very dreary, grey, drizzly day here and getting any semblance of a good photo was hopeless, even with a flash – so here you see my son, under protest, on the balcony in the rain, nobly assisting his mother. When the sun shines again I’ll get the top out on the washing line and hopefully be able to show you it in all its true glory. And I really do mean glory – I love this quilt to bits. The Terrain<\/em> fabrics work really well – but I have to say that IMHO it’s the purple diamonds that really work the magic.<\/p>\n

Not a quilt for the faint-hearted – the points on the stars are really critical, especially with the level of contrast I have in mine and there is a lot of fabric meeting there…which meant I did a lot of pinning, sewing, looking, unpicking, repinning, resewing……you get the idea! By late last night with two long seams still to go I was positively cross-eyed and had to give up!<\/p>\n

The quilt is quite small – Camille Roskelley says 70 x 60 inches, but mine comes in a bit under that – bigger seam allowances I guess and there are so many seams that that soon adds up! I’m contemplating maybe getting it basted this afternoon if we have all quiet on the western front!<\/p>\n

Have a great Sunday!<\/p>\n
