Scrap Logs And Woolly Jumpers.
I know I have commented in recent posts how we seem to have had an extended Summer, so it will come as no surprise when I say that Winter has finally hit. I think it really hits home when the mornings are cold enough for the heater to go on. Definitely time for slippers. I […]
Bears, Possums And Flowers.
This really is gong to be an all sorts post for today. It has been an enjoyably busy time time with several workshops and little travel squeezed in as well. We spent a few days in the Bendigo and Maldon region last week. We managed to dodge the windy days and had several delightful sunny […]
Birthdays And Bertie.
The second Bertie block has been completed and I have prepared the third, ready for stitching. I am enjoying working with the wool and it has also made me realise where the gaps are in my stash. That’s a good thing because now I can focus on the colours and patterns I need rather that […]
Tigers And AQC.
Football season started here several weeks ago and it turns out that our 4yo grandson needed a hat and scarf to support his team. The lovely part is he has chosen his team purely because of the animal emblem representing it – a tiger. So now it appears he will be a Richmond supporter. When […]
Rabbits And Birds.
When I first saw this fabric range I really liked it and bought several fat quarters. Of course this creates a problem because I had no particular pattern in mind so then had to work out how to use the fabric. I had seen this layout a while back and thought it would suit. It […]
Chicks And Dinosaurs.
It has taken a while, but I have managed to collect a good range of wool to be able to use in applique projects. It is becoming easier to purchase here in Australia. So my first play with this technique is Bertie’s Spring which is a Bonnie Sullivan pattern. There are four panels, so obviously […]
Hippity, Hoppity.
I think Autumn has finally decided to arrive here, just in time for Easter. We are still having warm days but the nights are much cooler and that is delightful. No sign of leaves changing colour however. A small candle mat has been completed for Easter. I am running out of places for display so […]
Monkey Business.
There is not lot of quilting happening here – probably due to the hot and humid weather we are having late into the season. But I have been working with some smaller items. The first finish is a table runner from Bird Brain Designs made in wool felt. It is quite long and will easily […]
A Pocketful Of Pink And Purple.
Pink, purple and gold were the requested colours to go into this quilt. Just right for a little girl. Each of those little bags on each block is actually a pocket. They concertina out from the quilt. This quilt will hang on the end of a bunk bed. It can be made any particular size […]
A Terrain Finish.
It is a big finish for me. I am not normally a maker of big quilts, but this one had a mind of its own and grew. It ended up at 80 inches wide and 95 inches long. It sits very nicely on an old fashioned brass double bed. It has been made using a […]
