This quilt, China Memories, was made in April this year for the Gold Coast Quilters Challenge, the theme being "Travel".
China memories was inspired by our visiting China in 2007, specifically Beijing and Shanghai. The Mutianyu section of the great wall we climbed being the inspiration for this quilt. The textures of the wall, as well as the colors and patterns of the doors, stalls, buildings, fabrics and life in general, in Beijing and Shanghai adding colour and movement.
Details of the quilt
Chris Parfitt, a fellow Aussie Blogger has said she would like to see the real quilts. Okay a little difficult to do this online, yet. I do have a solution of how you can see the real thing – Skype + video. Cool I thought, so here is the deal my Skype ID is simple: suziecheel and you can contact me via my contact form or email me
