And on to the next quilt ...

which is going to be for my Aunty Pauline who will be 80 years old next April!  I've had the pattern for a while.  It's from a Kaffe Fassett book and it's called teapots.  I'm going to adapt the pattern though and use my own choice of fabrics which I have started to collect ...


Do you remember this Jam and Jerusalem fabric?  I love it and bought a few metres last year when Steph at Cupcake Cottons had a sale on.  Well I think it will be perfect for the backing!  It's great when a quilt starts to come together ...




I also bought some pretty waxed cotton thread ready to hand quilt my Angel Quilt ...



I won't start quilting though until the weather turns a little cooler - you get so hot sitting with the quilt on your lap when you are hand quilting!
