Birthday Quilt Update


My little brother's big birthday quilt top is finally pieced.  The Layers of Charm pattern from the Fat quarter Shop is perfect for time-constrained gifts and I love how it looks in these black, grey and low volume prints. Not too fussy for a bloke.  That cheeky wee orange punch makes me smile too.  It's actually a sketch blender but it does look solid here and not as pretty as in real life.

Anyway, now that piecing is complete I have decided that this quilt should be shipped off for a little Trudification.  Honestly, this is a bit of a relief because it means a) my brother will get a much nicer quilt for his big day and b) there's a chance he will actually get it on his big day!!

So, next time you see this lovely it will have been through the skilled hands of a master quilter - sounds better than 'pimped by Trudi', doesn't it?

  3. Love that sneaky bit of orange too! I think the word Trudification should be included in the Oxford dictionary! Jxo
