Quilt Calculations.
Getting photos has been very tricky of late. Although the days have been warm they have also been windy or wet. Yesterday we had crazy thunderstorms, but in between we had beautiful sunshine. I managed to keep my quilt undercover and took shots in between storm fronts. Yes, I had to squeeze in around the […]
Yarn, Thread And Paper.
I have had my head down working on getting some quilting done. Also working on the the bindings. In between I have been playing with extremely varied projects. I finished off a Midori type travel notebook that I had started in book making class. The cover is canvas that has been painted, stitched and decorated. […]
Back To Red And White.
It doesn’t matter what I seem to do, I always come back to red and white in my quilts. So, here is another one. Not the best light or angle, but it gives a reasonable idea. It is a combination of single squares and 4 patch blocks. Lots of fabrics are the reverse pattern of […]
Spring, Whales And WIP.
We seem to have jumped rapidly from Winter to Summer here with temps in the 30s. But there are quite a few signs to let us know it really is still Spring. Our ornamental pears are in full blossom and the bees are loving it. Even when driving around the countryside there is colour everywhere […]
Cards, Snowies And RAK.
A quiet week of settling back into a routine. And a little bit of productivity. Planning ahead for some birthdays so a few cards are needed. Also getting back to some stitchery. I have a year of these snowies to work on. Here are January and February. I was the very lucky recipient of a […]
Joining In With The Rows.
I have read a lot about the Row X Row craze that took over so many quilters in the US these last months. So when we had the opportunity to spend some time in South Carolina, I decided to join in, if only on a very small scale. I have been really impressed with the […]
Home Again.
For the month of August we have been away enjoying the sunshine and hospitality of South Carolina. Or Charleston, to be more precise. What an amazing city! We loved our time with our family exploring this new city and learning a lot of its history. And it was a great way to get away from […]
Searching For Sunshine.
Not a lot of sunshine here, so it’s a bit tricky finding the right place and time to take photos. I managed to finish my froggy quilt and get the binding done. I kept to simple quilting over the whole quilt. But used some lovely variegated thread to add interest. I have also been using […]
Happy Halloween!
Too early? Just being prepared. This is a panel by Deb Strain called Moonlight Manor. I was going to cut it up and rearrange the pieces into a larger quilt, but I just couldn’t do it. I loved it the way it was, so the easiest solution was to turn it into a wall hanging. […]
Animals Everywhere.
Some more finishes. The first one is a flimsy I have shown before, but now that it is quilted and bound, it counts a a finish. It is lap size. Love these cute owls. The next one is made using up left over pieces from the jungle quilt I made earlier in the year. The […]
