A few weeks ago I blogged about a spur of the moment Christmas quilt I had started. Well, now it's finished and all ready to be used this Christmas.
The pattern (Watling Street) was designed by Sheila Christensen and is in her book, Quilts with an Angle. I made my quilt smaller because I only had a limited number of scrappy Christmas fabrics in my stash. Can you believe I made a whole quilt from stash? Even the backing and the binding? Well I did, and I want to use more of my stash in 2023.
I've called my quilt The Candy Man because at first I thought of Candy Canes (due to the colours and stripes), but I don't really like to eat candy canes, but I did love performing The Candy Man song on the stage at the Regent Theatre in Dunedin back in the 1970's.
I quilted this quilt myself using my walking foot.
