Although it is not finished, I do want to show you how my matrouska quilt is developing.
It's not going to be a large quilt, but it will be a cosy one! And I'm using only old Dutch Sits fabrics.
There are three more pieces that need to be finished and sewn on the quilt.
I have to buy more fabric for the binding and for the backside. And after sewing it al together I want to needlequilt it of course.
My mother gave me this sits fabric ones with these beautiful borders. As you can see I used the smal borders in between. I'm going to use the large border as a finishing border. So to be continued again!

What a gorgeous and satisfying design and use of fabrics.
Hello Heleen - thank you for visiting my blog. I've had a lovely time looking round yours. You have made some very beautiful things - and this quilt is going to be another! I have only ever made one quilt - it took so long!
Take care :-) x
I love all their little faces. What a great quilt to snuggle in.
This is looking gorgeous! The sashing print is especially lovely.
Can you describe what is 'Dutch sits' fabric? I'm not familiar with it.
Thanks
Gillian
Oh my goodness! GORGEOUS! I love pretty stuff so much.
When you say needle-quilting, do you mean by hand?
Oooh hij wordt helemaal geweldig. Ik heb nog nooit van Sits stoffen gehoord en ik zie dat ik niet de enige ben. Misschien stof voor een volgende keer? ;-)
Alvast bedankt! Succes verder en tot ziens!
I love your quilt. it is stunning.
Wat prachtig die Russische dametjes in oer Hollandse stofjes.De kleuren passen zo goed bij ze.
Mooie quilt wordt het.
your things are amazing...the quilt is beautiful!
Your quilt is looking gorgeous! All the Matroushkas are so happy!
Oh, its beautiful :)
Ik vind het heel mooi, Heleen. Gelukkig hoef je voor extra stof niet meer helemaal naar Amsterdam of maak je er een dagje uit van?
I love it, its simply a work of art. Well done.
This looks great. A real labour of love. I can imagine that you will give it to your children, and they will give it to their children and so on...lovely.

This quilt will be so special.
Hij wordt prachtig!
This is such a cute quilt! Well done!
Ach wat wordt dit toch een leuke quilt. Hollandse sits en dan de matoushka's. Sits is toch een typisch Nederlandse stof? Werd dat niet gebruikt voor bepaalde klederdrachten?
Het wordt in ieder geval prachtig!
Your quilt is beautiful, Jane x
I love your quilt. It is sooooooooo beautiful! I love the small border fabric you used. So perfect for the quilt!
What a fabulous quilt that's turning into.
While I was on holiday I saw a shop that sold only these dolls and my thoughts immediately turned to you and your quilt
love and hugs xxx
hij wordt prachtig. Lijkt me moeilijk om in de mooie sits stof te knippen.
