AQC 2014.
I spent three days working at the Australian Quilt Convention this year in this wonderful World Heritage listed building. It is a great venue for these exhibits. There were many stunning quilts on display and if you want to see the finalists and the winner you can go the the official AQC site. The winning […]
FHFS – It Sure Is!
For the first time ever I have participated in an on-line swap. The group is FHFS – Friends Having Fun Swap. Our first challenge is an item with a Dresden plate. My swap partner , Keryn of Christmas Creations, is very organised and my parcel has arrived!! When I opened it I was speechless – […]
A White Rabbit Day.
White rabbits for the first day of April. And Easter is sneaking up quickly, too. I have completed my felt candle mat in time for the Easter Bunny. Here’s the link again to the book. I also saw a variation of this on Pinterest just using one bunny. So of course I had […]
A Kitchen Window Finish.
The binding is done and the quilt is ready. So good to have another finish! Here it is blowing in the wind. And while the sun was shining, here is the back, too. I am very pleased with the decision to use the strong contrast of black and white with these bright colours. It has […]
Spring Flowers in Autumn.
Not really. It’s just that the fabric in this quilt reminds me of Spring – lovely colours and fresh. I really liked the floral fabric and wanted to make a simple quilt to show it off. I had trouble with a full quilt photo as the sun was bright and the wind was blowing, but […]
Knit, Purl etc.
Lots of little knitting has been happening here in the last week or two. Having to be in different places and doing a bit of waiting around lends itself to having an easy carry project like knitting. I have made several of these monkeys before from a Twins Knitting pattern. I have been playing with […]
Lots Of Little Things.
It has been very busy here over the last couple of weeks but I have had a chance to do some sewing for some little ones. First off there are these two little doll quilt wraps. They are 24 by 24 inches and have a 13 by 13 inch pocket in the middle. That is […]
Views And Windows.
Big smiles here. Our computer is back after convalescing for 10 days. Happily, it is now working better than ever. I had just finished my Kitchen Windows quilt flimsy and was ready to post about it when the computer decided to stop. So here it is. Love these fabrics. The pattern is from Elizabeth Hartman’s […]
Computer Hospital.
It seems to be the season for it – computers that do not want to work. Ours is having problems with its power supply and is off for repairs. I am using an older laptop at the moment and am trying to be patient with its lack of speed. I apologise if I have not […]
A Little Mystery.
Each year I manage to attend a workshop for a mystery quilt. This one was held on a day that was 41c but thankfully the workshop was held in air conditioned comfort. This is the end result. It is a small lap quilt – about 40 X 40 inches. I tend to make them small […]
