Vicky and Sally are twins.
They live in the UK.
and they both made the quilt!
Even though they're twin sisters, their quilts are completely different styles!
This is what I'm talking about...
Here's Sally's quilt - she set her blocks on point.
I quilted a teardrop shape in that pretty white background.
...love her backing...
I gave each quilt block its own personality with different quilting.
The blocks look like they're floating - I love that!
All bound and ready for home...
Here's Vicky's quilt.
She went traditional.
Vicky framed each block, added sashing strips between and a post.
I gave each of Vicky's blocks individual treatment, too.
I quilted ric-rac in the sashing & swirled the posts.
That backing - after spending some time in Japan, Vicky knew she had to have this piece for her quilt.
So darn cute!
This one is all bound & ready for home, too.
(they said they were "giddy kippers" waiting for them to arrive)
They sent me these adorable little "haberdashery" items - a pin cushion and matching tape measure.
thank you...I love them...
Thank you, Vicky & Sally, for allowing me to "do my thing" on your beautiful quilts!
Two gorgeous quilts and yes very different. Lucky for them - that they found you and you performed your magic touch!

DeleteAnd just what can I do for Vicky and Sally so I can get a few haberdashery items, myself?? You know, Corrie and I tried to steal that pig several times. :)

Might not be worth the £8 international delivery though!!
Super cute, again! Love the little sausage dog! But I love my little pig the most! Thanks for the link! I passed it on to my friend who wanted to steal my pig pin cushion!
DeleteThose are beautiful! And yes, I love the pig and spent some time with it.
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe you were wearing my little "Taffy Piggy" and I didn't even notice. You're so funny!
DeleteSo fun to see the different take on the same pattern. Love your quilting on both of them, especially the rick rack in the sashing. And those special gifts are TOO cute!
