Lovely Kits.
At the last craft show in March I purchased several Marg Low kits. This Winter weather has given me the perfect excuse to make a start on them. This one that I have completed is Festive Trinkets. Before. And after. I haven’t added the hanging cord yet as I am debating maybe sewing a small […]
More Bits.
We are enjoying a lovely long Labour Day weekend here and the weather is treating us very kindly. Beautiful sunshine and warm days. I have managed a little sewing and have finished the Southern Jewels quilt top. It’s a very simple pattern but is designed well to showcase Leesa Chandler‘s gorgeous fabrics. I made the […]
Eggs And Santa.
Summer. The perfect time to be working on a Christmas quilt? I suppose it means it will be ready for Christmas. This is a small quilt I had sandwiched and pinned a while back. It has waited for a few months before I had time to do the quilting. I only had a small amount […]
Owls Finally Finished.
This week has seen me busy with a lot of preparation work. I seem to be tracing patterns, transferring designs and cutting. I sometimes feel I have been busy with not a lot to show for it, but we all know that it is worth doing to the preparation right to have a good end […]
Planning Ahead Or Catching Up?
Once Christmas had come and gone I realised that most of the Christmas sewing I had done was for gifts. And all the Christmas projects I had wanted to make for our home were put aside. So, instead of leaving them until the end of this year, and probably putting them aside again, I thought […]
Nearly There!!
Christmas Day is sneaking up very quickly and for some reason I keep finding things to sew! Why is that? At least they are little, easy and portable. These are from the current Christmas edition of Better Homes and Gardens. Rather cute! I was able to make more of these decorations, too. And I still […]
Really? Only One Week To Go?
That can’t really be true! Oh, well, I had better keep working on all the unfinished bits and pieces. First a little excitement. A little while back I won one of the Ghastlies prizes being offered by Pauline of Quilt’N’Queen. I chose the gorgeous Tea Cozy. It looks wonderful and I love it to bits. […]
Christmas Picnic.
Today is the last of the Teddy Bear’s Picnics for the year. So of course we are happy to enjoy some Christmas Cheer. My Bear was a new addition to last year’s decorations and it seems appropriate for him to be the one to join in the picnic today. Have a wonderful picnic and visit […]

Going Green.
Quite accidentally, everything in this post is green. I only realised that when I was cropping the photos. We have a Magnolia Little Gem in our garden and there have been several flowers, but they have always been wind or rain damaged. It has been delightful to have one open when the weather has been […]
