Christmas Crazy.
A quilt finish!! Yay! I had a pack of turnovers and some leftover fabric from the Crazy Eights range. I did a bit of juggling and was able to make this lap/wall size quilt. I headed outside for photos but really battled with the wind. This is the best I could do. It is a […]
Felt Ornaments Again.
The collection continues to grow. There are more felt ornaments added to the collection. First up – a reverse in colour from last week. These are white cats with red stitching. Hope they look good on the tree. Next up I started on some trees. The red ones are first and I am currently […]
Christmas Plans For November.
The horses are off and racing but I am happy to watch the big race on TV – Melbourne Cup. It is overcast and cool so I hope all the race goers stay warm and dry. I have decided it is time to catch up with a few Christmas plans and make some decorations. When […]
Sweet Baby Stripes.
No co-operation from the weather today so some of the photos are a little dull. But they still show how the quilt looks. It does look very sad and sorry in this photo. Hopefully the close ups give a better impression. This quilt is made with two and a half inch strips. Most are from […]
Little Things Grow.
Happy October. We have been making the most of our Spring weather with lots of time outside and in the garden. We took down some huge branches overhanging a work shed and our timing was perfect as the next day we had strong winds – over 100kph – that did a lot of damage across […]
Another Christmas Finish.
Finishing a quilt is easy when they are smaller wall hangings. I was able to quilt this one in no time and then finish off the binding in the morning. This is the one by Natalie Bird of Birdhouse Designs called Christmas Blessings. I showed it recently as a flimsy. Thankfully it is not that […]
Spring Bunny, Birds And Flowers.
Back again, thanks to a heads up from Mary. And sorry to anyone who tried to comment and couldn’t with the last post. There was a gremlin in the mix but thankfully my amazing computer whiz (son) fixed it. I am very grateful for that. On to all things sewing. I had shown Bertie’s Spring […]
Red And green Mixed Blocks.
A mixture of reds, greens and creams has led to this quilt. I had been wanting to make blocks which were scrappy and could use fabrics from my stash. I was originally working on blocks for two separate quilts, but realised with a little tweaking I could combine them into one larger quilt. I started […]
A Santa Flimsy.
I am steadily getting myself back into a sewing routine. After having 3 weeks with a house full it takes a little bit of adjusting to get used to the quiet. I have made plenty of clothes for various dolls for our visiting grandies, but this is the first of my projects I have returned […]
Snow And Snow.
I have continued to work on my collection of snowies and managed to recently finish this one for May. I was then looking back through my posts and realised that I had not posted a photo for the April/Easter snowie. That’s better. I am now up to date. It has stayed quite cold here so […]
