Moving Along.
I am keeping busy with all sorts of projects. And am also keeping to the plan of alternating something old and something new. The old first. I am working on the last block of my McKenna Ryan quilt. The beach boxes are down with most of the stitching done. But I also needed to prepare […]
Meadow.
My Meadow quilt from Amitie is finally finished. The pattern is designed by Michelle McKillop. And I bought the fabrics in a kit from Amitie. As you can see, the centre is split into quarters for different colour ways. The internal borders and the flowers reflect the same colour ways. Dark to light blue. Orange […]
Little Things.
The last day of March. Hard to believe it has come around so quickly. Like many of you I have been digging into my list of projects to be done as well as working on UFOs My finishes for this week are all little things. I have started working on The Twelve Days of Christmas […]
Clam Shells And Wool Flowers.
My wool flowers and clam shell piece has made it to the finish line. It has ended up as quite a big larger that I thought – 48 X 21 inches. It is a Wendy Williams pattern designed as a table runner but I will use mine as a wall hanging. It is from her […]
Little Bits.
It is always good to see progress on projects. This quilt is from Jen Kingwell of Amitie and is named Meadow. This is the centre panel. I now have to make the border which consists of 24 applique blocks. Lots of tracing and cutting before any stitching begins. A friend was working with some small […]
A Blue And Orange Finish.
The catch up is continuing with tops waiting to be finished. I think this top was ready in November last year, so it has had to wait nearly a year to be completed. Lots of blue and orange in this one. This quilt started when I saw the bird fabric. It was an end of […]
Donation Quilts – A Joint Effort.
One of my weekly groups is an embroidery session and through it I have met a lot of people and made many friends. Recently one of the ladies brought in a set of 16 embroideries that she had completed several years back but no longer wanted to use – no grandchildren of the right age […]
Gum Leaf Quilt.
It was time to dig out a few UFOs and make a finish. This gum leaf quilt had been started in 2011 so it really deserved to be quilted and finished. Each leaf was made individually with many strips of fabrics which had been stitched together then cut into the leaf shape. The leaves were […]
Getting Close!
My McKenna Ryan quilt top is getting close to a finish. The first 7 blocks are sewn together. Not all the applique can be completed until the borders are on but is is good to see it the blocks together. There are two more blocks to add. This is the eighth one. So I am […]
Aussie Animal Quilt Finish.
Finally a post with some sewing in it. I think I had to go back to May for the last entry with some stitching and a finish. I have been able to finish the Aussie animal quilt for our granddaughter to use on her bed when she visits our home. Quilting and binding finally done. […]
