Description:
I am an amateur quilter that taught myself the art of quilting. Quilting is my hobby and break from my day to day work. I prefer old school traditional quilting. I love reading quilting books and have a special interest in the work of Michele Hill. My quilt is a smaller copy of a pattern from her book William Morris In Appliqué. I met Cindy Thomas by entering the miniature quilt exchange. Cindy is creating the most beautiful quilts and she inspires me. She is a quilt teacher and I wish I could attend her classes. I named my quilt Rain Birds because currently we in South Africa and Cindy in California is experiencing a severe drought, this is my hope for rain for both our areas. The material for my quilt, I specially bought on a visit to New Zealand.
