Kathy's Blocks

 I thought it would be fun to start a new hobby. This was the first large quilt that I made.

I stitched all of the pieces by hand and then quilted it by hand.

Enjoy hopping.

  3. Your FIRST quilt? Wow. You are definitely talented. This was some undertaking for a first quilt. You should be very proud of yourself. Your choice of colours is stunning - the whole quilt is just so alive. Well done.

    1. Thanks. I had been studying for 5 years before this and it was really filling a need that had been created by the absence of text books. I had my degree and thought of getting a second one in psychiatry, after reading some of those text books, I decided the theorist were really sickos, so in a way you could say that quilting is a Freudian slip. I have always had busy fingers and had been thinking of quilting for a while.
