Basting Kaffe Fassett Quilt


We are at Robyn's house in this photo - basting my Kaffe Fassett quilt.  Robyn's husband who is an engineer has designed this fantastic frame for her to baste her quilts whilst standing up.  It is brilliant.  Robyn very kindly lets us baste our quilts on it too.  It is extremely helpful when your quilt is as big as this one. 






Two colours I love at this time of year.  The flame tree with it's brilliant flame orange (sorry about the foggy picture - taken through the very dirty windscreen of my car) and the jacaranda tree.
I particularly love the purple carpet it lays down.  This carpet is from the tree just outside the meeting rooms of our quilt group. 
We have a few jacarandas in our garden, but the flowering was a bit disappointing this year.  They are still beautiful to look at though.

Oh what a great idea....tell Robyns husband he will need to patent this as I am sure there are going to be heaps of orders of them :)
