Amish Quilts Progress

The Amish quilt wall hanging has been the last 2 months project for the quilting group with just one more monthly meeting to finish them before we all move onto the next project which will be a block of the month series for the next few months.

The hangings were planned and designed by Fran and Karen and originally constructed from .5mtr @ of 3 plain fabrics, 1mtr fabric for the backing and .5mtr of matching plain fabric for the binding.  Various techniques have been used for the quilt including trapunto and a generous amount of quilting stitches...great practice for those larger quilts to come.

Here are a few pictures of the Amish progress, with finished quilts next month hopefully to show:
