A Quiet Week.
A quiet week here on the sewing front, but extra busy with grandchildren staying over for several days. I have been working on these blocks. Lots of pieces. I had to cut nearly 600 blues and 600 whites. That’s not bad for me as I am not always that patient. I admire those of you […]
Happy New January.
A new month, a New Year! Time to get into all the sewing projects. I have a small quilt finish. It is about 45 inches, square. This quilt was a very simple design at Cutting Cloth in Melbourne. I bought a selection of fabrics from them and came home to play. I had forgotten how […]
Merry Christmas.
This was not made as a Christmas quilt, but the colours do give it that sort of feel. I had several pieces from the Under The Australian Sun range left over and wanted to use them in a simple quilt that focused on the reds and golds. A post and rail seemed the way to […]
Merry December.
It has been a hectic time, but I am determined to do at least one December post! Lots of shopping has happened, including these gorgeous biscuit tins. Love the way the bauble has been incorporated into the tin. And, yes, it spins! The colour and the design on the tin could have easily fitted into […]
Happiness
I am a very happy Vegemite. I have one of my machines back!!! Yay! As soon as the call came I was off. I put mine and the loan machine together. I really have appreciated having the spare one from a friend, But you can see why I was happy to have mine back. There […]
Kitchen Windows Repeat.
I finally have a quilt to share. Both machines are still at the repair man, waiting for parts to arrive. I ended up piecing this quilt on the little machine that I borrowed, then had to send it away for quilting. Thankfully I was also able to complete the binding on the little machine. The […]
Keeping Hands Busy.
September has flown by. But Spring is here and we are enjoying some lovely sunny days. This is what is happening to our orange tree. We have only recently finished picking the last of the oranges but that wasn’t going to stop the blossom opening. The whole tree is buzzing with bees. I have been […]
Paris. Maybe. One day?
No. I am not lucky enough to be in Paris, but I have been using a lovely fabric range called Dance in Paris by Brigitte Heitland. She has designed a pattern for Zen Chic named Spring In Paris. I have followed her design almost to the letter. This is my version. It is about 60 […]
Jumping Into July.
It has turned very cold and wet. Not surprising for the middle month of Winter. But it still feels Brrrrrr….. . The trees have taken a while to change colour but the last two weeks have changed all of that. Perfect weather to be inside stitching. And that has led to a finish. My Tinsel […]
Short And Sweet.
As the title says, this is a very short post. I am working on several baby quilts, trying to collect a pile for friends who are having grandchildren. They can give them to the family, or keep them to use at their home when the new grandies visit them. This is the latest finish. This […]
