Ellen has been visiting family in the US for a few months. She finished the following quilts whilst away – she has been busy.
The first 2 are for her grandson and are a pair of quilts for twin beds, called The Underground Railroad quilt. There is quite a bit of history to this design. I am still reading a book about this which I purchased in the US almost 2 years ago!
Both these quilts were hand-quilted
The next pictures are a double bed sized quilt, using a Disappearing Nine Patch design made with orginal 1940s fabrics. This quilt has been machine quilted
They are really lovely quilts Ellen.
