I decided to make an Irish Quilting Fairy Godmother.
She is paper pieced. I got the pattern from www.paperpanache.com She has free mystery pattens frequently and this month it was create your own quilting godmother. She had six sets of words and we have to pick one from each set. There is no way of knowing what she looks like until it is sewn.
It was machine quilted and the celtic design in the border was part of the quilting.
15-1/4" x 18-1/2"
I bet you smile every time you look at her. I know I do. I hope she brings you good luck. Fun quilt.
ReplyDeleteI also do the Paper Panache -- and this is a pattern that you made, but you did not design it. I'd like to see what you can design.
ReplyDeleteI love your fairy godmother. Your choice of fabrics, background and quilting motif as well as your overall effort makes this your own little quilt. I say, good job!
ReplyDeleteOriginal parts or not She is very original to you. Great job! She looks so very Irish.
