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 […]




A Baby Quilt.

Lots of babies are on the way for friends in the form of grandchildren. So a few little quilts will be needed as gifts. I thought it would be easier to make several at once. So this is the first one. This is an Amy Bradley panel from way back. It was simply waiting for […]




Moose On The Loose.

A moose quilt was requested by our eldest grandie. The family spent time at Yellowstone National Park last year and the moose was the standout animal. So it was no surprise when that was requested as the theme for her next quilt. I didn’t have to search too far as I had purchased a pattern […]




Getting Ready For Christmas.

Christmas never really feels like it is far away and maybe I will get a few projects done early. These are projects that have been on the go since last year, so maybe they will be in time for Christmas 2023. Last year I started the Sue Spargo BOM, Tinsel. Because of delays with mail […]




Welcome, 2023.

Summer is in full swing here in the New Year, 2023. We have started having our hot days at last, but the garden is surviving and so are we. There has not been a lot of quiet time, but I have managed to get some quilting done. This was a simple quilt with Aussie animals […]
