Califon Growing.
I am gradually adding layers to this quilt. I will definitely add another white border and then will have to do some very careful calculating to see if I have enough fabric left for one more row of blocks. It is currently 5o inches across so I suppose I also have to think about how […]
Slow And Steady.
Some sewing jobs just take time and can’t be rushed. I have been slowly working on the quilting of the Butterfly quilt. Just straight line, in the ditch quilting, but still time consuming. I am almost there, possibly one or two nights and then it should be ready for the binding. There is light at […]
Bits And Pieces.
It’s a bit chilly out, so a good day for inside activities. I have managed to pin this quilt sandwich. Some more cards have been added to the stash. And I have been able to purchase this book – 501 Quilting Motifs. I have so much to learn about free motion quilting and one of […]
Making A Start.
I have started to put the blocks together. Still keeping it very simple. Four blocks went back together to form the centre and then a white border. Another row of blocks went all the way around. My plan is to add another white border and another row of blocks. I will then have used up […]
9 Patch.
A while back I purchased some Califon fabric by Mark Lipinski. It has already been used in 2 other quilts here and here. I still like it and have a lot left so decided to use the charm packs to make the disappearing 9 patch blocks. I am not planning to put them into the […]

Bird Houses Finished.
This is not something new. It has been waiting very patiently for me to finish the quilting and the binding. You would think that something this small should have been quickly off the list. But it kept being put to the back of that list. Nothing fancy on the back. I am surprised to see […]
Cat Quilt.
Still working on this one. I added a final border and some more snail trails in the corners. Just need a little more time to sandwich this and quilt. One day.
Pinks and Blues.
This was an easy quilt to make. I simply used several charm packs and a little bit of pink for the skinny inside border. I have had the fabric for a while and can’t remember the name. I like the colours and designs in the fabrics. They have a fresh Spring feel to them. And […]
Great Excitement!!!!
Ed: Linking to A Beach Cottage – Good Life Wednesday. Just over a week ago I received my advance copy of Handmade Magazine. This was because I have had a quilt published in it. First time, ever! I was excited to just have a quilt in the magazine but when it arrived I was even […]
