WIPW - French Knots

It's time for a Work In Progress Wednesday report. Actually I have found time to progress more than I expected on the Fruity Cushion. I have even started on some of the French Knots.

Unfortunately, for the next few weeks I will be busy with many other things so the progress will slow down again. No time to visit blogs, either. I am so sorry.

NHK Partnership quilt for 2016

Finally I have managed to complete the block I will be contributing to the NHK's Partnership Quilt project for the Tokyo International Great Quilt Festival 2016 in January next year. As you might remember the deadline is August 31st. Read more about it here.

The theme is MUSIC and I thought the key harp, so important in Nordic folk music, would be a good way to add a bit of Swedish flavour to a quilt.
Instead of making the fiddly little flag I usually include, I pieced the background in the national colours of Sweden.

I can guarantee that my key harp has many flaws and is a totally unplayable instrument, but it was fun to make!

WIPW - Minuscule Progress

Work In Progress Wednesday for the last two weeks shows minuscule progress on the

Fruity Cushion

from someone with minuscule amount of free time! I've been super busy with other things.
