Swans

Background

29/11/2008 - This quilt is based on the painting Swans Over Pumkins by Carry Ackroyd. It was made, with Carry's permission, for my brother's 25th Wedding Anniversary. The painting was adored by my brother, so when he asked for a quilt, this is what he wanted. The quilt took over a year to make and is machine pieced and hand quilted..
