Snowies In A Basket.
The felt theme has continued with a little finish – a small penny rug. Such an easy one to make. As always I have added to the original design with some buttons and a bit more embroidery. Can’t help myself. Now it is time to get back to some quilting. Have a lovely week. Cheers, […]
Snow Hearts For February.
So far, so good. I am keeping up with the self imposed monthly requirement for Snow Hearts from Bunny Hill Designs. Here is the installment for February. I am stitching along with Shez, and Joan is planning to join us as well as Jeanette. It is always interesting to see how each person […]
A February Quilt Finish.
Finally a quilt finish. It has taken me until February but it is done. Good to be getting back to finishing quilts. It is a very simple design made up of half square triangles. The same colours are paired up to make a rectangular block. They can be put together to make any sized quilt. […]
Snow Hearts.
A year or two back, Bunny Hill Designs had free patterns for some heart decorations. I was not able to make them at the time but after a chat with Shez we decided to stitch along together and make one each month as per the original follow along. Thanks Shez, for keeping me on track. […]
Pin Cushion Play.
Over the last two weeks I have been able to attend a class with Nicole at Sewing Connection to work on Sue Spargo style embroidery and wool work. It has been wonderful to learn about a variety of techniques when working with wool and finding out about the various threads to use for this embroidery. […]
2018 Begins.
Here’s to another New Year! I do hope it has been a good start for everyone. Our garden decided it was the perfect time to be busy so I have been picking a lot of strawberries and blueberries . Most of the strawberries ended up as jam. The blueberries ended up being eaten rather […]
Little Christmas Bits.
This week is a good time to catch up on a few little bits and pieces. I started these button stars a long, long time ago. For some reason they were hidden away. All the hard work of sewing on the buttons was done and all I had to do was sew on a backing. […]
Melting Snowmen.
It is super hot here today so no snowmen would survive. There would be a lot of puddles instead. Thankfully my snowmen are made from felt and can withstand the heat easily. I have not made this design before so this time I made enough to give away and one to keep. I am only […]
Off The Radar
Summer has started here with a bang – as in storms and rain. Our state had severe weather warnings out and there was a lot of rain in some areas as well as flooding. No flooding here but a lot of rain and the garden is happy. I know the weeds are growing fast. I […]
A Red And Grey Extra Quilt.
This is a re-make of my Woodland Quilt from last month. I wanted to make it in totally different fabrics so it was not a baby quilt. I went with the red and grey so it can fit with Christmas without actually being a Christmas quilt. I have used these fabrics in several other quilts. […]
