Wow! I like it.
All the blocks are in the Electric Quilt block libraries.

takes me back to the way I learned to make quilts … by hand, using scissors and pencils to mark and cut out pieces, then needle and thread to stitch them together.
It also reminds me of the polyester batting which was all I could find in country Australia at the time. Yuk!
I still love handwork, but not that early wadding!

I can only second about the polyester wadding. I hate it, it’s cheap and nasty and difficult to quilt because it doesn’t ‘cling’ to your fabrics. I’m quilting a quilt with poly wadding at the moment on my domestic machine for someone (not for money but because this woman is going through a rough patch and I volunteered. I’m trying to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear). It was basted elsewhere and basic stitch in the ditch completed before it was handed over to me with several puckers on the the back – yuck.
I did use poly wadding in my first quilt because a) I didn’t know any better and b) I couldn’t afford anything else. I’Il will say this though, the quality of that polyester wadding almost 17 years ago was much superior to what’s available now.

Glynis,
There was one man made fibre which was lovely … used it for one quilt and it was beautiful to work with and is soft and warm in use. Never found it again.
I haven’t looked at what is available now … just use wool or cotton, sometimes with poly, sometimes without. The quilts I made with polyester are still working well … like polyester fabrics. They are tough, but not as comfortable to wear or use.
