Workshop And Finishes.
December has raced up very quickly and I am sure it will speed up even more as we get closer to Christmas. Good luck with all your Christmas shopping and sewing. I had the good fortune to attend a wonderful workshop with Keryn of Christmas Creations. A group of four of us worked hard in […]
Tricky Colours.
Sometimes the camera and the colours just do not want to work together. So the colours in these pictures look very washed out. Time to use your imagination. This quilt is from a pattern by Lisa Cantley of Fig’N’Berry Creations and is called The Snowmen are Gathering. I have shown the individual stitcheries in previous […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Framed.
I was delighted to be able to pick up my framed embroidery. Very happy with the framing. It’s a bit tricky to photograph an embroidery behind glass, but this gives you the general idea. I have managed to finish 2 of the 5 sets of bunting. The other 3 are all stitched and trimmed up, […]
A Good Weekend.
We have a long weekend courtesy of the Queen, so Monday is a holiday. I have spent my long weekend rediscovering more projects that had been put aside. Nearly two years ago I had started the Fernhill BOM from Lynette Anderson. I made good progress with the stitcheries, but then stumbled when the mini quilt […]
Red Robin.
Another UFO becomes a quilt! I am pleased to say that I have managed to keep working on my UFO pile. But I have also started a few new projects as well. This was a small lap quilt, already sandwiched, so not too much needed to get it done. Just quilting and binding. I know […]
