The Ocean currents for the quilt
Quilting the planet
Well, not really quilting the planet but it;s the kind of daft idea I’m famed for. I’m quilting a map of the world. I have had this fabric for about 10 years. I started doing it by hand (Oh Canada! Why are you so wiggly?) but got distracted by small children and life. I have recently decided to have another go at it.
I have a lovely sewing machine now, a Pfaff Ambition 1.0 and it makes quilting a great deal easier. This time I have decided to quilt the ocean currents as well as going round the continents.
I’m still not sure about Canada though. Very wiggly.
I’d better get on with it before all the boundaries change again.

I did a map of Minnesota once, but I haven’t taken on the world yet! I think it’s a cool idea.

Wonderful. I’d love to do the UK. All the little islands would be a huge challenge.

Thank you! It’s not finished yet though. I have had a terrible dose of bubonic plague. Okay, it’s just a cold, but I definitely need tea in bed 🙂

hope your feeling better! Tea in bed always works, should be able to get it on prescription. 🙂
