I'm so hoppy......

... so very hoppy....

.... quilted and binding finished ....

Harrington and Hannah quilt
done as a free BOM  last year


A lovely mix of techniques....


wool felt applique


... and some simple stitching....


some piecing of blocks around the edges...


Hubz likes this quilt for its geometrical style and orderly layout
(that tells lots about him!!! haha)


I used felt made from old woolen blankets and clothing
... and a lovely cotton vintage table cloth...


... it is backed with a flannel sheet 


so nice and snuggly and warm - perfect as we are still having winter...

Thank you so much Michelle for sharing your lovely design

(the blocks are still available HERE as well as some cute postcard ideas)


.... haha.... isn't this so true??

Righto, Gotto Go..... I think I'll make a cuppa and go and snuggle under my latest quilt....
