Crafts CouncilDirectoryBy Lisa WatsonSquare Patchwork QuiltsAboutA unique square patchwork quilt enables the fabrics arranged in 140+ squares to really be the stars and highlight of every design. I love textiles and combining colours, pattern and textures together in a pleasing and interesting composition is why I stitch quilts. Every patchwork quilt is always wholly unique, since all the fabrics are always so different. I enjoy the challenge and satisfaction of designing and making patchwork quilts that are one offs and personalised for every individual.By Lisa WatsonManchester, EnglandA Square Patchwork Quilt For Rory's 16th, Lisa WRory's mum wished a patchwork quilt to celebrate her son's 16th birthday... Thank you so much for designing and creating Rory’s quilt. You incorporated sixteen years worth of cherished pieces of clothing into something very special. Thanks for taking into account the (many) notes I sent with the clothes and using very specific parts of certain items. Love the way you used shirt pockets for items like socks and his little cashmere hat. Rory is very happy with the quilt and now my Mother wants one for her 80th birthday!Cosy Patchwork Quilt to remind Jemima of her dad, Jemima RutherfordJemima asked me to stitch a small patchwork quilt using her dad's clothes. The result is a joyful, bright and comforting quilt to cuddle up with. After losing my Dad three years ago and moving away, I wanted something that would keep his memory alive and give me the comfort of home. Lisa worked with me to create a beautiful bespoke quilt made up of my Dad’s clothes. She took on board my specific requests and was very helpful with any suggestions. I am so grateful to have this now and will cherish it forever. Thank you LisaChequerboard Patchwork Quilt Stitched With Golfers Jumpers, Lisa WFollowing the success of a chequerboard patchwork quilt stitched with golfing jumpers, (see below) Jo asked me to stitched five more quilts for her, this time using her mother's cashmere jumpers. Four of the cashmere chequerboard patchwork quilts were smaller lap sized quilts for four nieces and the fifth quilt was a super king-size quilt for Jo herself. The candy colours and the chequerboard design on all these quilts are working really well together, don't you think? Here is what Jo said on receiving her quilts... I just got back last night and had opportunity to see your fantastic work on the quilts - thank you so very much, they are all fantastic and I suspect will also be lovely and warm in this cooler weather. I'm really looking forwards to giving them to my nieces when lockdown allows. You do amazing work. Kindest of regards, Jo.Gordon's exuberant memory quilt, Gordon Addison.Using Gordon's wife's colourful kimonos and PJs I designed and stitched this bursting with colour and pattern square patchwork quilt, which is sure to brighten any dull day: Well. What a fabulous personal service. My lovely wife Pauline , the kimono queen died and I wanted to be able to reuse some of her kimonos. I got in touch with Lisa. She understood what I wanted and with great sensitivity and care created the most fabulous patchwork quilt Full of joy and colour like Pauline it is tremendous. Prepared ahead of time and for the most reasonable price I now have a high quality treasure. She would have loved it. I certainly do. Thank you Lisa.
