My Favourite Mug Quilt

I have finally gotten around to photographing the quilt which I entered into the Festival of Quilts.  It was inspired by a favourite mug which I bought on a trip to Helsinki in Finland. I also did some of the design work while I was enjoying a weekend with Janet Edmonds at Missenden Abbey on the Taking Textiles Further Course.

I have used a raw edged fabric technique for the background with zig zag stitching which quilts at the same time and bonded appliqué with free machine quilting and embroidery.  The quilted wall hanging measures 127cms x 124cms.           .
