Love Quilts UK Number Two

by Karen J Mossman

I had another email this morning, two in a short space of time, and it was so exciting to receive. If you have read my first post entitled Love Quilts UK you will understand what these quilts are and why they are so extraordinary.

This is the quilt, and each cross stitch square is an work of of art. My square is the red boat at the bottom. I stitched it in 2012 and remember it well, simply because it was supposed to be a harbour scene. As I was stitching, I reaslised I wasn’t enjoying it. Although it looked nice, it was very fiddly and would take forever. So decided to just stitch the boat and send it in as an ‘Any Child Square.‘ We never know when these are going to be used and as time goes on You forget.

It’s well worth the wait for it to be put together with such lovely pictures.

    1. Thanks Carole. You know that’s a good question, it was several years ago and I don’t think I can remember. I would presume it was from a Facebook cross stitching group. You know how you join one and it leasts to another!

      1. It’s OK, I found the link to it in your post. What a great idea. My daughter-in-law and granddaughter are both prolific cross-stitchers so I’m passing it on.
