I have just finished the Smitten quilt which will be joining a whole heap of quilts being donated to the Siblings Together charity. It was quite a big pile of quilts last year but I think this year we might top the previous total.
Here it is!
And I'm rather fond of it!
Lizzie Allen kindly donated the beautiful feature fabric which is Moroccan Mirage by Khristian A Howell for Anthology Fabrics
I added the background, the wadding and backing and bought the Smitten pattern to put it together.
After a consultation with the lovely Helen I decided to quilt flowers in the blocks and loopy quilting in the background.
I think it works well and I like the scrappy binding!
Hope the young lady who receives it will love it and know that we care!
Fabulous quilt and I love the quilting
