Upcycled faceted glass beads are hung on gold tone ear wires and then finished off with green crystals and gold beads.
These are the kind that can be worn with your jeans & boots or your little black dress!
I love the way these dangle at just over 1 1/2 inches.
Green handmade lap quilt
This green quilt was inspired by nature (see below).
Dimensions: 120cm x 120cm (47x47inches)- perfect for draping over the couch or your knees on a winter's night. Also suitable for the end of a single bed or a child's playmat.
Fabrics: all green! Dark, light, mid, lime, olive, teal - all sorts. I have used a mixture of designer fabrics, such as Amy Butler, Kaffe Fassett, Heather Bailey and Moda, as well as
everyday quilting fabrics, vintage barkcloth and bed linen - whatever suited the green theme. It is all 100% cotton.
The batting is easy care polyester.
The binding is a recycled vintage cotton sheet from the thrift store - waste not, want not! It is white with pretty yellow flowers.
The binding is a double layer, pieced from black and white quilt fabrics, giving the quilt an added "zing". It is attached by machine for durability. The quilt can be machine washed.
Pattern: I used around 200 four inch squares, sewn into rows of 14. The rows are offset in a brick pattern.
Quilting: I machine quilted the quilt with my walking foot, and chose an asymetric zigzag pattern to meander through the squares. I used "signature" brand variagated thread.
It is a Bananaorangeapple original, and definitely a one of a kind.
My inspiration: Sawpit Creek, Kosciuszko National Park, NSW.
I named the quilt "Sawpit Creek" after this beautiful piece of bushland. Sawpit Creek is 1200 m above sea level, so roughly halfway to the top of Australia. The alpine regions of Australia are rare and very special. If you walk a little way into the trees at Sawpit Creek, you can close your eyes and hear the quiet gurgle of the creek. All you can see is green and brown, with a glimpse of pure white snow. Take a deep breath and inhale the crisp, cold mountain air with the smell of eucalyptus and earth. I chose zig zag quilting to reflect the days when the bush rang with the sound of axes and men took turns to push a saw from the bottom of the pit. The brick pattern of the blocks represents the path the visitors take as they stroll through the bush. I hope one day you can visit this lovely part of creation.
