Distant castle

obscuring roses

Sometimes you have projects that are entirely whimsical and unnecessary while you have hosts of other projects that still need doing and yet you'll still do them. This project was one of those for me.

For some reason I had decided that I could use a new sleeping bag for when I go to castlefest despite the fact I have a couple already for different temperatures and that no-one would ever see it except for me since it was going to stay in my tent. On top of that I decided to make it a proper leafy quilt just to make it extra complicated.

First of course there was creating the pattern and cutting all the fiddly bits of fabric

Then assembling the quilt top and while not shown ironing the shit out of it to make sure it would lay flat.

Basting the bugger so that I could machine quilt it without too many issues

Quilting!

Aaaand finally adding the zipper and binding
