Chinese Coin Quilt

Here we are again on Sunday night - how does the weekend go so quick ?   I am sure we have all said this many times before. 

The last few weeks have been very busy, I have have started a new part-time job, my youngest grandson has turned one, Easter came and went and I have been trying to get to grips with my new english quilting machine and frame.  I have managed to quilt two baby quilts and a child's quilt, all for local charities. 

This quilt is all made from scraps ready to go to my friend who is raising funds for a playground in her village.  

What do you think? The quilt is chinese coin with sashing in between each stack with added borders with a cornerstone.  The binding is a scrappy binding.  Here's hoping it will raise a nice chunk of funds.



 I will be teaching this method on Tuesday and will add it as my first tutorial!  Well, here goes .....

Happy stitching.
