Hallo allemaal en welkom op, alweer, mijn vijfde versie van WOYWW. Deze week is er geen papier, stempels en inkt op mijn bureaublad te zien. Nee, deze week ben ik weer eens besmet met het "Fabric Fever".
Hello everyone and welcome again to my fifth WOYWW. This week there are no papers, stamps and ink on my work desk. No, this week I have my regular Fabric Fever.
Beside all my stamp and card making stuff I am a quilter for the last 2,5 years too. At first, I only made my quilts with needle and thread. But after buying a modern sewing machine I want to quilt on this as well.
In the very beginning all my sewing try-outs ended up in a real mess. I have found out that you need to practise a lot yourself if you want to have perfect results. So I went to a market and found these cheerful fabrics.
Ik besloot om met deze stofjes een eenvoudig quiltpatroon te gaan maken. Hiermee kan ik oefenen om de puntjes keurig netjes op elkaar te krijgen. Allereerst heb ik vijf blokken aan elkaar gemaakt waardoor er een
rij ontstaat. En dit zijn de eerste resultaten: I decided to make an easy patterned quilt. Just to train myself in perfectly matching up the corners to each other. I’ve sew five blocks in a row. And here you can see the first results:
De volgende stap is om deze vijf rijen weer netjes aan elkaar te krijgen met, natuurlijk, de puntjes zo goed mogelijk op elkaar. Als laatste wil ik bekijken welke randen er nog omheen passen, zodat de quilttop afgemaakt kan worden. Binnen een paar weken hoop ik dat dit klaar is, zodat ik het jullie kan laten zien.
The next step is to attach these rows together and, of course, all the corners have to be fitted again. Finally, I have to decide which borders I should choose to finish my quilt. Within a couple of weeks I hope I can show you this complete top.

Finally, I want to thank you for visiting my work desk this week. If you want to see more desks follow this WOYWW link to explore some more. Wishing you a happy WOYWW.

WOW Franka your quilt is beautiful so far it looks perfect to me. I love the colors and the blocks are going together very nicely. Thanks for sharing. Vickie #83
WOW.....I love what you've done on your quilt. My friend used to sew quilts by hand and it is very time consuming so it must be quite a bit quicker using the machine. You've matched the patterns beautifully. Nothing nicer than a hand made quilt. TFS
Wow i love your quilt you are making and the fabric you are using is stunning. Xx
Beautiful quilt! Love the color scheme. TFS! #128
Wow. It's amazing. Great colours, beautiful cutting and incredible matching. I have no idea how you do it. You must be the most patient person in the world.
Thanks for sharing (and blowing my mind)
cheers, rachel #70
