DARR's

Full effort was on this to complete before the Eid and was just on time... a comforter (90"x98") accompanied by a fitted mattress cover and 2 sets of matching pillowcase for DARR


From the beginning I was so undecided about quilting the borders and when I removed the whole quilt out of the frame and found that the stitches were not similar to that of the other machine which usually I did my quilting on then down came TEH from her throne!....

It was quite impossible to mount back the whole quilts on the frame...... 
It laid off my hands for two days.... and several designs were applied and unpicking was done many times too....:( 
 Finally, stipple was still my choice..... if only I had decided earlier I would have continuously done so from the beginning.... 

Well I am happy that it is neatly completed and felt contented with the result.... :)

STASH BUSTER

In my attempt to fluff my this treasured quilt, it drizzled outside and had to transfer it indoor.

Just to recall old times when we stayed in BK3 and kids were in college, I managed to do this to unstashed, way back in 2002.

This king size quilt is quite an interesting project for those who find it hard to quilt in a bulk and have limited quilting space. And the best part is, it is a-quilt-as-you-piece project or foundation piecing, means that we laid 3 layers together and sew the additional pieces and it will form the quilt. Stacked all up and join the pieces by hand-finishing.

I used this great technique from JUDY TURNER from her book Awash With Colour. The pics from Australian Patchwork & Quilting Annual 2002 Vol 9 No 11 Page 58.

BASARIAH'S PINK

king - 3rd edition - my beloved sister - basariah there she goes... she too would never miss whatever i have (just joking). just a token of our sisterly love, i made this specially for her. as usual this kind of projects all done by hands...
lots of memories tagging along this quilt. started this pinky at the general hospital of Ipoh, while nursing my mum who had been hospitalized for almost three solid months. She was amputated and had some other related 'old-people' sickness and remedies that needed special attention and day-night observation. well what should i do then...i did my quilting, sewing, knitting and crocheting was the answer. sadly she passed away about four years ago now..... i missed her...

KING HEXAGON QUILT

king - Sham's Auntie
the first king size using hexagon. all hand-stitched and hand quilted. my own design.
at my little space sewing room i have no spacious wall or floor area to snap to get the whole design. it worth the effort to complete this piece cos it was quite heavy using half an inch fibre batting. and it was not easy to quilt in such a thickness (request from the owner). when finally delivered to her she was so happy and love the colour and simple design... phew!
