I love to make quilts! But I also love to make Tudor gowns


Okay it doesn't fit my manikin very well, but it fits me the right way I love it. It's time for new one so I'm going to start one from after the new year. And like my quilts, as I work on it I will be posting pictures.
(all those pearls of beads or sauna by hand by me)

Finished two more.


Two more Stonefields blocks done.

Never made this complicated of a quilt before, Sometimes I have to make the block twice to get it right.They really don't give you much instructions for doing it. I guess it's really for somebody that's more advanced in Quilting than me. But if I have to make a blocks three times I'll do it and get it mastered to the best of Ability. It's the Aries we are very stubborn people we don't give up.
This is one of thoses Quilt along they sent you pattern and fabric one time a month. Really don't like the fabric if they sent me. So i'm keeping all my patterns that I make. Then I can remake it in colors that I really like.

I love the way all four came out!


They all came out to the right size of 6 1/2 inches and squared. And the points look pretty good too.

I did it I did it.

It may not seem like much but I did it. First time I've ever done this and it came out the right size at 6 1/2 inches. I'm a very happy girl.
Now I only have three more to go.

My version of Godstone Grannies coverlet






This is a picture of Original Godstone Grannies Coverlet that was approximate made between 1960 - 1965 in England.
Karen H. made a version this covered. I fell in love with it. So I had to make one for myself. I don't have permission to show her quilt, so if you would like to see her version please go to her website at
www.faeriesandfibres.blogspot.com
And so
Here's the beginning of mine!
Tell me what you think.

Very happy the way its coming out.
