Summer Sailboats

Summer Sailboats

15.5 inches x 24 inches
40cm x 61cm

This is a small quilt I made following a visit to Aberdovey in Wales. Like most coastal places, the weather changes constantly. It can be cloudy and grey but we were lucky.
I loved the way the sunlight caught on the cresting waves and how the water lapped onto the sandy beach with frothy ripples. Beautiful!
I’ve used a variety of fabrics in this piece – hand dyed cotton, indigo dyed velvet and linen, scrim and tulle. It’s all free motion machine quilted.

This quilt combines a digital print of a photograph of an old fishing boat that I fell in love with some years ago in Brittany, with piecing and free motion quilting. The text is painted fusible appliqué with hand stitching.
