Welsh Quilting Talk
Welsh Quilting Talk I recently gave my talk on Welsh Quilting/Quilts to a local group called Positive Thinkers. And what a lovely group of Positive Thinkers they were. It's been a little while since I've given this talk. And I had forgotten just how much I enjoy sharing my love of Welsh Quilts with others. As well as talking about the history of Welsh Quilts I like to throw in a few modern/contempory/fun Welsh pieces in. The one above is the first of my contemporary challenge quilts - all with a Welsh Theme (I'll post more about them another time). I was so pleased that they really got my miniature Welsh Quilts And fully appreciated just how much work went into freemotion quilting them. I've also hand quilted a few with contrast colour stitching so the quilting patterns really pop. Of course I took some old Welsh Quilts so I could show/describe the quilt patterns Spirals, Swirls, Hearts, Cross Hatching Leaves And Echo Quilting...
