Helen Hazon – Book #5

Northanger Abbey

Inspiration – my almost lifelong love of Jane Austen’s novels.

Jane Austen’s two final complete novels were both published in 1817, after she had died.

I am continuing my series by using the first 3 design ideas and making slight changes in each new quilt. This is the second in the green colour scheme so I have kept the corner square idea and added a second square. As in the previous quilts in this series I have used hand embroidery, raw edge applique and machine stitching. The words are the names of the main characters and locations in the book.

All fabrics are cotton. Hand embroidery is in cotton and machine stitching is in rayon.

  1. This is a great addition to your series. Your fabric choice really takes the viewer to the times of Jane Austen. Your stitching is immaculate as always.
    I love it!
