It’s January in Montreal, which means it’s cold. Add to that Quebec’s pandemic restrictions, and there’s not much left to do other than chores, work, or fun things like binge-watching a series, reading, or quilt. I chose to sew together some quilt tops.
That went a lot faster than I anticipated. I just finished appliqueing and adding the border to the first block for the Garden Party Down Under block of the month from The Quilt Show.
occurred to me the other day that I make one large project a year (at least). Last year, it was the Zoo Family Portrait. The year before that, it was my beautiful Half Square Triangle Trip Around the World. This year, I’m going to do a block of the month (BOM) from The Quilt Show, called Garden Party Down Under.
I’m taking this first day of 2022 to show you the last quilt of 2021 that came off my frame yesterday – a Lotus Flower quilt, with a mandala.
