Red Again.
It seems that once the red theme hits I have to work it out of my system. I recently received a fat quarter bundle of these lovely fabrics. They are Holiday Frost from Henry Glass. Gorgeous reds and greys in this bundle. I had a lovely experience with this purchase when […]
No Longer A UFO.
I am delighted to be able to report that another UFO has been completed. This is the quilt made with the double hourglass blocks using pastel colours. I think the fabric is Moda’s Sleepytime, which I had in a jellyroll. Added to that was a Bella white jellyroll as well as some yardage. I also […]
Plates For The Blogger’s Quilt Festival.
It is once again that wonderful time of year to view all the amazing quilts featured in the Blogger’s Quilt Festival hosted by Amy at Amy’s Creative Side. There are hundreds of quilts and so much inspiration. And you get to meet quilters from all parts of the globe. I hope you have […]
Pink And Blue.
I have spent a week concentrating on free motion quilting for my Dresden quilt. I am surprised at how long it has taken to do all the stitching. But thankfully the end is near as I only have the binding to do and a few loose threads to trim. I decided after all that work […]
Feeling Colourful.
I am making somewhat of an effort to work on a few UFOs. Just the bright and colourful ones. This first one is the 3D bow tie quilt. I had the blocks made a while back and have only now put them together. I have also started to quilt the Dresden that has been […]
Animal Stack.
I am back at home after 4 weeks in the US and enjoying the last blast of Summer sunshine. I know it won’t last for long but it’s a change from the snow we have been experiencing while away. We were home just in time for our grandson’s first birthday. How did that time go […]
A Little Mystery.
This little quilt top was completed recently in a mystery quilt workshop. It is a lap quilt or throw size. We received instructions to select 3 fabrics – light, dark and medium. We then had to do all the cutting before class. This made sure the top was easily completed in a day. Definitely a […]
Stripes and Stars.
Here are the stripes! This little zebra has recently found a new home with our grandson. He is made using a pattern called Savannah Chaps, by Barbara Prime, which also includes and elephant and a rhino. It was purchased through Ravellry. Very easy to make and good directions. I think there may have to be […]
2013 Is Well Under Way.
Time to get back on the horse. Or, to be real, time to get back to my blog. The weather has made sure that we are having a real mixed bag to start the year. Lots of very hot days as well as crazy cool ones for this time of year, too. Unfortunately many states […]
Christmas Wishes.
The last of the Christmas sewing has been completed. I had this group of stockings to complete for Christmas day. They now only need the name tags to be added. They are also made and I will stitch them on this evening. We are all looking forward to a lovely break over Christmas. Best […]
