Hand drawn garden

I thought I would show you one of my earlier quilts using the Anna Maria Horner line Drawing room,as her new collection Hand Drawn Garden is about to be released. This was out a few months before I started quilting and it was one of the fabrics which started my fabric obsession. When I take photos of my sewing space you will see what I mean.
As I was new to quilting and looking back on this photo I realized this was when my Amish mistakes started as well. I used the pattern supplied by the manufactures. This also taught me the difference between the weight of the fabric, as this was home decorator weight (I knew it was heavier but it washes beautifully and is now much softer) so I am looking forward to the new quilting weight. Sometimes I think I like the back better than the front.
My niece adored it, which was wonderful.

    I found this through looking up Hand Drawn Garden, and I saw the back first. I love it! But I also adore the front. Now I'm going to have to look back through your blog to see what the Amish mistakes are....... So happy to find your lovely work!
