Wholecloth quilt kit

What was your inspiration?

I have made 4 hand sewn wholecloth quilts. I just enjoy hand sewing at night watching TV.

What are you most proud of?

Completing them.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I used wool batting as it is light but gives a good loft.

I love all the stitching that went into this whole cloth quilt. I would love to do one, but I've got to have more time than I have now.

Gorgeous and so elegant. I never seen this work before. The detail is meticulous and the white is pristine.

I was attending a patchwork course at my local University (for the over 50s) and saw one of the tutors wholecloth quilts. I thought I would like to try it. The worst thing is putting the layers together . Once that is done you just stitch from the centre out and try to keep your stitches even.
