I'm very late getting to the Teapotters' Farmers Market, but here I am with my Cathedral Window patchwork quilt. I made the quilt before I went on holidays, and just finished the card off when we got home yesterday.
Cut circles from scraps, folded them and stuck them to a square base. My base layer was scored and sponged with faded jeans after stamping the sentiment. I added some gem flowers, sequins and buttons to some of the "patches". Along with a tumbling blocks, this is a quilt pattern I would love to make in real life - if I ever have more spare time.

This is just gorgeous Sabrina. I really like the colors you chose, and your squares all look so nice and precise.
Long ago, I took a quilting class where we made a variety of 12-inch blocks. One was the cathedral window,and I remember it was so much work and so hard to get each of those window pieces to come out square. I think I'm more cut out to work with paper than fabric.

This is one I would love to make........I have the time, but the energy and drive aren't there any more. Guess my quiltiing days are behind me! Your card is lovely.
