A Winter Finish.
It’s the middle of Summer and I am finishing a Winter quilt. This is a little lap size quilt using a free design from Erin Russek of One Piece At A Time. I started it several years ago and then it was set aside as I found other distractions. I appliqued each mitten with satin […]
Lovely Colours.
Over the past few weeks I have been playing with these lovely fabrics. This is a baby quilt I have made for our niece. She is due in the first week of December. It is made using HSTs. I started with 12 fat quarters and still have fabric over. The fabric is all […]
A Zoo Quilt.
Here we go. This will really test out whether all the repairs and upgrades work. If this post works I can then see if you can comment and if I can reply. Fingers crossed. Several weeks ago I managed to complete this quilt top and send it to my LAQ. It came back within a […]
Ribbit, Ribbit.
I wanted an easy project to play with just to give me a little bit of sewing time. I really like the quick strippie quilts made by Mary of Making Scrap Quilts From Stash, but the focus fabric I had was not WOF. It was only a fat quarter. So, as they say, necessity is […]
August.
I had a very lovely lady notice that I hadn’t been posting anything on my blog for quite a while, and she was checking to see if everything was alright. What a sweetie. So here I am, just scraping in for an August post. Sewing time has been extremely limited as most days have been […]

It was a delight to wake this morning to see the sun shining and some blue sky. We have had several weeks of overcast and rainy days. And a lot of fog. It is still chilly and there is some wind, but seeing the sun makes a big difference. I made the most of it […]
Making The Most Of The Day.
Trying to take an outside photo of a quilt is very tricky at this time of the year. It can be windy, cloudy, wet or any combination of all three. Today was very cloudy and windy, but I took advantage of the wind easing off to snap a few pics because I knew there was […]
A Tilda Delight.
We are up to the second swap in our FHFS group. Fiona is extremely organised and has already sent me her gorgeous parcel. I have been watching her give little peeks on her blog but never thought it would be coming to me. Look at how Fiona has used pretty doilies to decorate the parcel […]
For A New Arrival.
This is the quilt I have been working to finish this week. It is a baby quilt ready to head to a new baby who arrived last week. Lots of HSTs turned into this. I took it outside for a photo on the grass in the sunshine. but the grass was uneven and I realised […]
Welcome Winter.
Here we are at the start of Winter, but my trees seem to have skipped a season. As you can see in the photo there are hardly any leaves turning colour or falling to the ground. Yet only a few streets away, these same trees have dropped their leaves and the branches are bare. Very […]
