Quilts You Make - or Collect - or Wish You Made or Collected :o)

It seems there are a few of us on eBay who love quilts - make quilts - collect quilts - live and breath and talk quilts.....so here is a thread for any who do.

This will be a place to discuss, show off, ask questions and/or answer them.

Please remember though - eBay's policies do not allow for self promotion/advertising our auctions.

Sooooo - :-x who's first to confess they have more fabric than their friends or husband think they really need? Besides me, that is.

I wish more of the crafters here would show their personal collections.


I love quilts. My favourite is a single bed "blackwork" quilt, which was done in pink! It was made in the 1930s and I was the only bidder because most blackwork collectors didn't understand it.



Blackwork quilts are not pieced. The patterns emerge from the sewing/embroidering of the front and back together, more like a British quilt than the American style. Fully embroidered quilts are hard to find.
