Winter Is Coming Quilt Made.

I sorted out all the different package of squares today.

This was one lot. 

Another 

and another.

As it was supposed to be a 'Winter Charm Swap' with "no Christmas or Holiday fabrics", I was surprised to see so many of those sorts of fabrics included, but no problem as there is more than enough to make a least two, possibly three quilts, so all good fun.  I am quite sure the Rose Cottage Hittys will be absolutely delighted to get a Christmas Quilt in due course!

I decided to go with a blue theme, as I wanted to make Hitty Morag a quilt, and she seems to really suit the blues.

Deciding how to edge it was tricky, as I wanted to utilise the fabrics I was sent, and the fit was not easy... as I had included some reds in the layout I picked the red fabric strips from one of the packages to border the blues.

Hitty Morag seems pleased with the result

I used to quilt a lot but haven't done any in a long time, so lost my confidence a bit and was a bit stuck at just what to do so went for simple.  

These swaps a such fun to take part in.  To think this little quilt is made by me, with fabrics from across the world kindly given by lots of lovely Hitty friends is a real treat.
