Quilts (can actually be quite arty)

A selection of quilts which caught my imagination at the London Stitch & Craft show this week:

This one above was just so striking - the one below almost grotesquely girly; it had me charmed.

 This one was titled 'hands and home'

 There were rows and rows of them ~

~ All with a total variety quilted 'flags' hanging in crafty sewn rows above... Very bunting-esque.

Of course, I managed to spot the bike themed ones:

Mix Make Wear

Blue organic discs hand embroidered onto vivid orange net and smooth canvas backing, with striking yellows to reds.  Ribbon tie fastening in matching yellow and blue. 

 

Made from carrier bags, netting, canvas: all recycled.

Created using crochet, heat proccesses, hand embroidery and sewing.

A collection of materials, a mixture of textures and some fun techniques for this playful statement necklace...

Measuring 12cm x 10cm.  Ribbon ties approx 50cm each.
