My creative space - the Tequila Sunrise Quilt

Tequila Sunrise linen quilt

The design is in my head and the fabrics are laid out on the spare bed.

Thsi quilt will be made from red, yellow and orange scraps of screen-printed fabrics, left over from when I used to make project bags for a living, plus some extra special pieces of fabric.

This quilt will be big. I was going to put it together randomly, but now I have this mighty design wall in my sewing room, I might as well make use of it.

More creative spaces in cocktail-inspired colours over at Kirsty's.

  2. Have to agree with Eryn ... the yellow birds are gorgeous! Looking forward to seeing what you make and maybe the stages you go through in designing the quilt (I'm still trying to pluck up courage to try quilting - just no idea where to start!).
