My first patchwork

Here it is

In warm autum colours and a white to combine both patchwork sides.

When I stared making blocks from small bits of material and sewing them, I had no idea what will become of it. Just like in song que sera sera whatever will be, will be. I had no idea how to end the pachwork, so I improvised. I turned out as a big cushion. Not so bad, right? I learned a few things along the way and I'm sure next time it'll be easier. I still have a lot to learn. My next wish is to make a quilt. First I have to find out where to get my hands on all that fantastic tools for making quilts, beginning with batting and a rotary cutter and so on. There so much tools to help quilters and all I have are scissors and an old sewing machine...

  2. Zelo lepo! Se vidi, da so vsi šivi na mestu. S kiltanjem je kar dosti dela, da na koncu vse stoji tako kot mora. Meni je do sedaj uspelo narediti le dve odejici.

  4. Ja pa so res takšni jesenski vzorci. Lepo si jih skombinirala. Lahko bi še kakšen tuturial dodala zraven, za nas učljive ptičke :)). Zdaj pa v nabavo spomladanskih barv za nov projekt, mogoče pachworkovske torbičke :).
    Pozdravček ♥
