Quilt using African fabrics made by Catherine |
This smile says it all - a smile of joy when you receive a heartfelt gift of a quilt. As a long arm quilter it is lovely to see photos of the quilts I play a small part in, completed and in the hands of the recipient.

African quilt incorporating bible quotes |
Catherine wanted to make a special quilt for a friend, the Bishop of Woolwich, who is originally from Nigeria. Choosing some bright African fabrics and some panels with special bible scripture quotes, she has managed to bring together all the elements into a wonderfully colourful and comforting quilt.

'Bird's Eye' quilt design designed by Barbara Becker |
With the bright colours the quilting was never going to be able to compete for attention, so we chose a digital quilting pattern called 'Bird's Eye View' to quilt it evenly across the whole quilt using my long arm quilting machine. I think this pattern has to be one of my favourites.
