Day 3 of the quilt challenge. We now move to New Delhi, India where I
was a member of another lovely quilting group. By this time I was
teaching beginners and the blocks in the centre of this quilt were my
class samples. I made it for my daughter, Stephanie - started in about
1995 and finished in 1999. I must have dallied a bit too long in giving
it to her as she was 10 by then and getting a bit too old for the
Beatrix Potter animals in the centre of each star! It was hand quilted
using local cotton fabrics made for export and cost less than a 100
rupees a metre, which if I recall rightly was under a UK pound! She
still loves it and complains that it was yet another quilt left in
storage in England.
