Have just come across this site. I don't make quilts, but I would aspire to making something like these http://uniquejunktique.com/tuesdays-favorite-finds-12-camping-quilts/

Hmm... not a fan of such quilts myself. They're very clever but just not my  :drink: However, I'd love to see yours  :flower:

The first one is the same style as a friend of mine who makes embroidered pictures and then gets them printed as cards etc.

I like them .. they are clever but how big are they ? they look like pieces of art rather than quilts... which I think of as bed/ snuggle size... that's not saying I wouldn't put one in a frame

I wouldn't hold your breath, Lowena, I'm nowhere skilled enough with FMQ or have the imagination  :( I will have to do a lot more practicing.

 Oooo I do love these 'art' quilts.  I'd not seen any until going to Harrogate Quilt Show last year and they're fab.  I especially love it when different materials are added too.....wonderfully creative
