The sewing ladies are preparing for fall sales here in Bangkok. It's a popular time for women's groups to meet together - and a good time for sales. So we continue to make a lot of the old standbys that continue to be very popular - especially the Jim Thompson fabric quilts. We try to always have them on hand. The "Americana" quilt was very popular this summer and we've had several special orders for this quilt.
Here are some new looks from this past month:
This is a large king sized quilt that is very pretty. These ladies have become such experts at quilting that I can show them a new design and they can just figure out how to make it and how much fabric to cut and sew. They can't read English patterns so they have learned to adapt....and have done a great job. Sophoan made this quilt.
Someone recently mentioned "watercolor" quilts to me so I started researching them and fell in love with that look. This quilt is not the typical watercolor quilt, but was an easy beginning step to try. It is pretty and something unique for a baby quilt.
Here is the Americana quilt that has been very popular this summer.
Thanks so much for your interest, your purchases, and your prayers. This livelihood is very important for the lives of these women. Please contact me if you are interested in something you see here on the blogsite.
Blessings,
Gayle
