Ferret is an award-winning quilter from the UK. On May 1st, her birthday, we featured Ferret in a video. Well, a lot has happened since then. She took top prizes at both, Quilts UK Malvern 2010, and the National Quilt Championships Sandown 2010. At Malvern, her quilt Greek Fossils, took 1st place - longarm quilting, 2nd place - large wallhanging, and Judge's Choice.
Here's what she has to say about Greek Fossils: "It's a wholecloth on a piece of Heide Stoll-Weber hand dyed fabric. There are only two colours of thread on it, although the fabric makes it look like there are more. As always, the quilting is all hand guided. I marked the rough outlines of where I wanted the borders and the centre design to go, and filled the rest in freehand. It was initially made as a test piece to see if the feather technique looked any good, but my boyfriend convinced me that it was good enough to enter into shows."
