edges & quilt peeks



yesterday i forgot to post a pic of my selvage! there is something pretty exciting about seeing your name on the edge of a piece of fabric...
so, i've been slaving away all day making blocks for my new quilt, it's a twist on a string quilt - (summersville strings?) - i've never made one before. i love the look of them but me being me couldn't make an ordinary one, oh no, i have to complicate things. that's just the way it is. that's how i roll. i roll in a complicated manner. anyway, doing it this way leaves lots of lovely space for mother spencer to work her quilting magic...i'd better inform her she's got work to do...

i've been overwhelmed with the comments here, on twitter and on flickr about the summersville line - i've been practically reduced to tears with the sweet messages of goodwill (not that it means much - i cry at diagnosis murder, remember haha) thank you SO much, each and every one has been read, and laughed over and cherished. thank you. x

Just popped in from Flickr and the first thing I thought was "where can I get ME some of THAT?" The fabric is awesome! I guess I'm going to dig around your blog a bit and find out more. Congratulations on your fabric line!
