Snowmen Progress.
I had time to put a couple of little borders around my favourite snowmen. Then I quilted the borders with loops and stars. Tonight I will sew on the binding.
Redwork and Stars.
In this quilt I have been able to combine some embroidery and some piecing. It started with the stitcheries. I had bought Wendy Briggs book Simply Red and was planning to stitch some of her designs. Before I had even started stitching I found this lovely Robyn Pandolph fabric in cream, red and green. I […]
Melbourne Cup Day.
It is Melbourne Cup Day today and, YES, we do have a holiday for a horse race here! It would be appropriate to find something to do with horses and quilting. I do not have anything with horses on it. This is the closest I can get. Will it do as a substitute?

Blue and white always looks fresh. For the centre part of the quilt I did straight line cross hatching. […]

Natalie (Candleberry Country) put together a kit for each of us so we could have a wide range of fabrics. All the blocks are made from half square triangles then the blocks are arranged to […]
Just Binding.
Nearly there. Just finishing the binding!
Eye ( I ) Spy.
I Spy quilts are lots of fun. I like the idea of collecting lots of fun fabrics to use in them. Quite often they are fabrics that you cannot find a use for elsewhere but still want to collect. And sometimes they are left from other quilts you have made. I decided to make mine […]
Bow Tie.
I really like the sharing of ideas in all quilting groups and this quilt is one example of that. Our DIL attended a quilting class with some friends when she was in USA. She learnt the technique of making the 3D bow ties. When she was back here in Aus she was able to teach […]
Seeing Stars.
