Just Keep Going.
We are in lock down still. Apparently we hit 200 days of cumulative lock down since the start of the pandemic last year. So it really is a case of just keep going. So I did. I finished putting together a quilt top that I had started last year. I had done two of the […]
Moving Along To August.
It has been cold, wet and miserable here – but it is Winter! But out of the blue we have had two lovely, sunny days. Not warm, but appreciated. And I think it turns back to Winter normal tomorrow. So obviously lots of inside time. Sewing has been done but with the Olympics in the […]
A Finish For Round The Garden Path.
Finally after many months, maybe years, I have finished the embroideries and quilting for Round The Garden Path, a design by Fig,N,Berry. Once the embroideries were complete and the blocks put together, I had a good play with the quilting. Each of the eight outer blocks were quilted in a similar way. I was able […]
Happy Squares.
Very happy to see another finish. This is not a very big quilt but it is enough to have on your lap for a bit of extra warmth. The size was dictated by the amount of fabric I had – the Japanese indigo prints. I kept going until I had very few scraps left over. […]
Colourful Pinwheels.
Another top has turned into a a completed quilt. The last stitch has gone into the binding and it is ready. The quilt is made of pinwheel blocks, each block using two fabrics. The fabrics came as a charm pack with the addition of a single piece to use in the border. There was even […]
A Colourful Finish.
My finishes have been few and far between lately. Same with posts. And now they will all probably arrive in a rush. That’s the way it often works. I have completed my colourful, woolly flower quilt. Blocks together and binding done. It has been a pleasure to work with the wool for this quilt. It […]
April Catch Up.
Time seems to be flying by with lots to do. Is it because we are all still catching up on things since our long lock downs? I know I am still putting in time with my sewing but progress is slow. I do have a few quilts sandwiched ready for quilting but they are a […]
Autumn Has Arrived.
Our tree out the front has been keeping a calendar and decided that on the first day of March it would start changing colours. It is still a very young Crimson or Scarlet Oak. This is what it looked like a week ago. It has become a much deeper red and this is the colour […]
Chickens And Pigs Finished.
Yippee! My Dancing Chickens and Flying Pigs quilt has made it to the finish line. It has been a lovely quilt to work on and I am now looking forward to catching up with Anni Downs next design. Quilting done and binding finished. Lots of fun, quirky blocks in this quilt. They are all entertaining […]
A Lot Of Years In This One!
It seems like this quilt has been a long time in the making. I think I bought the pattern and quilt kit over 10 years ago. I didn’t get around to starting it until 7 years later. A long wait. Then when I started making it I was only pulling it out once a month […]
