The Crumbly Cottage Quilt - Work in Progress

This is my first foray into English Paper Piecing.  






My parents' live in a gorgeous little cottage in Worcestershire and I want to make a traditional looking quilt that will fit right in.

My Mom is a huge Jane Austen fan so I started collecting fabric I thought looked a bit Regency and added prints I thought looked like they might find their way into a quilt over the years.


At some point in the next 10 - 15 years I hope to finish it!

  1. Long term projects are fun! I especially like long term hunting and gathering of fabric. You have some great old timey ones.

  2. 10 or 15 years LOL that's about how long it's going to take me to do something with my hexagons
