quilt weather

we're heading off for a week in a cottage on the Yorkshire coast, and just in time I've finally finished E's quilt, (last seen here, it's taken 6 months to quilt it, that's what happens when you get a request for footballs in the quilting....) anyway it's finished now, and I especially love the red binding inspired by Monica, and we shall be packing it because it's definitely quilt weather.......

sorry it's a terrible photo as the light was awful, I shall rephotograph it when we get back.
hope you all have a lovely week, whatever the weather x

  15. It's beautiful, Tess. I love the colours. I'm mulling over a quilt in my mind with a similar colourscheme. Your red binding is genius. Laura x
