At the conclusion of our Online 7802/7822 Patchwork and Quilting Course, students who have satisfied all the syllabus requirements are awarded a certificate by the awarding body, City & Guilds of London. We would like to offer our congratulations too!
Jill Bull

Jill's final assessment item was a set of four wall quilts each one responding to one of the elements. From left to right, Earth, Fire, Air and Water.

The colours associated with each of the elements were collected and carefully put together.
Right: the quilting patterns really helped to emphasize the ideas behind each piece and was integral to the theme.

We love the dense directional quilting that completes each hanging.
