A winning quilt (not made by me)


A while back there was a contest: Totaal Anders (Totally Different). One of my quilting friends, Diny (no blog) designed this beautiful quilt, called 'Zusjes' (Sisters).

Een tijdje geleden heeft er een wedstrijd bij Totaal plaatsgevonden: Totaal Anders. Een van mijn quiltvriendinnen (geen blog) heeft deze prachtige quilt ontworpen: Zusjes. De foto's heb ik met mijn iPhone gemaakt, dus de kwaliteit is niet zo goed. Toch wilde ik ze met jullie delen. 
Met deze quilt heeft Diny de derde prijs gewonnen!

This is what I am working on at the moment. It's the quilt for my aunt, who will turn 80 on Saturday.

Momenteel werk ik aan deze quilt. Ja, Gerda, ik heb toch weer op de grond gewerkt ... Die andere methode probeer ik liever eerst met een kleine quilt!
De quilt is voor mijn tante, die zaterdag 80 wordt.
