I think that the quilt is beautiful and I love the story behind it. Some people can't see beyond their ideas of what they think a quilt shoild be there's a lot of quilts that were never quilted. Thank you for sharing with us.
If you ever, and please don’t, quit quilting, you can make a carear telling stories! For sure you have the soothing voice for it, and mostly important the good pace to tell it! Just loved this whole chapter, full of art and tales!
Go slowly.... That is a KEY piece. Thanks for the reminder! And how lovely to have had such a special person in your life. I loved the stories. Thank you for sharing with us.
I love your quilt. These things are so much in the eye of the beholder. I see some wierd shaped modern quilts and think "what....." and then find they have won first prize.🤔
I love old eiderdowns, there’s something very luxurious about them from a time when beds were covered with heavy woollen blankets, these added a sense of lightness and a dainty feminine touch. Your quilt is lovely and the story behind it is too. I could never submit a quilt as I would be deeply offended by any negative comments, a bit like the colour comments on your quilt. After WW1 when so many young men were killed, it wasn’t uncommon for two women to remain unmarried and to live together. It’s funny but two ladies living together in a relationship was viewed quite differently to two men in the same situation. It was almost viewed that it couldn’t possibly be a sexual relationship and was purely for companionship. I’m glad your family loved and accepted them for who they were. So many people had to live a life hidden behind closed doors and hidden from their families.
Such lovely work and an even lovelier story! I was just looking for a way to repurpose some vintage linen I was gifted. What a surprise to stumble across your channel. Many blessings to you and yours! I’m subscribing now so I’ll watch more later. 🥰
I love your program. Your stories are amazing. The photographs are gorgeous. I would love to live in England. I’m half welsh, but living in America how cool!!!
The quilt being so lovely is the main reason I watched the video. I don't know how to be an exhibition judge, but to me part of the "quilting" is the way the top is put together. Some quilts don't need a lot of stitching through all three layers to be complete. So in short, I disagree with the judge who remarked about the quilting, and the one who said color isn't applicable. Also you have a lovely storytelling voice that draws the listener in to the story about Aunt Edie.
