“Tannie” (aunty) quilt

We were invited for supper on Friday at the house of one friend, another friend came too and brought along curried chicken, which was really special.  Luckily the cook shared the recipe with me and I intend to make it for us one day.

Before supper, I finished this quilt, a pattern from a local quilter, teacher and designer.  She called it the ‘Aunty’ quilt and people in one of her groups could give a name and a story to go with the name and each block represented that person.  The outline of the block is basically the same with the inner detail changing from one block to another.

The quilt maker plans to use this on a bed so it needed no more than an edge-to-edge motif and we decided on medium grey thread.

  1. What an elegant pattern - you did a beautiful job. Our quilts each tell a story, but the group's 'Aunty' quilt shares many stories.
