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 […]
Gum Leaves.
A quilt finish! This is part of my effort to keep using stash. I had accumulated a lot of Lesa Chandler’s fabric – Under The Australian Sun. I really like it so was determined not to waste it. I saw the many variations of the hidden wells pattern and decided to try it out . […]
Pink Elephants.
I am steadily working through a backlog of projects. The litlle elephants quilt was the first to make it to the finishing line. I had a few small pieces of the elephant fabric to use in the quilt. Each block was framed with either pink or grey before going into the quilt. Unfortunately the photo […]
A Bit More Red.
Over a month between posts!! It has been a very busy time with family finally able to travel here safely. We kept busy and on the go for the whole time. We had a few days off and then readied ourselves for another overseas visitor for three weeks. Thankfully this time is a little less […]
