Rosemarie's Quilt

Rosemarie's Quilt

My grand-daughter has out grown her first year clothes, so a quilt made up of them seemed a good idea.

First I cut a five and half inch template.  The size seemed to fit most of the clothes while preseving patterns and pictures.

Of course it has to be square!  After sewing together this should give me a five inch square.

Next was cutting out.  A lovely day to sit out in the sun and cut with the aid of a rotary cutter and cutting board.  This is by far the easiest way of cutting out.

Well what a nightmare putting it together was! Different materials and thicknesses led to lots of machine snarl ups and Brocken needles. I ended up hand quilting sections as it was too difficult for my machine.

Anyway its finished.
