Story
The fabric for these 3 patches came from my friend Ros' stash - pieces of which were given away at her funeral. She dyed them herself.

Ros was a dear family friend. She was a teacher by profession and quilter. She sadly passed away in 2023. I wanted to include her in this patchwork project because I always think of her when I’m stitching a quilt, I wanted to mark her influence on me personally at a sew-er. Her family have said they're are very happy for these patches to be included and agreed the subject of this Art of Fiction project would have been right up her street!

One of the patches has words sent to me in an email by her husband telling me all about her creative quilting practice. Her family are currently in the process of cataloguing (and potentially exhibiting) all the quilts she made, of which there are many.
