9 Patch.
A while back I purchased some Califon fabric by Mark Lipinski. It has already been used in 2 other quilts here and here. I still like it and have a lot left so decided to use the charm packs to make the disappearing 9 patch blocks. I am not planning to put them into the […]

I am once again joining in the Blogger’s Quilt Festival organised by Amy’s Creative Side. Thank you to Amy for giving us the opportunity to look at so many wonderful quilts. Link up to her site to see hundreds of amazing quilts on display. This time I am displaying a work in progress. I would […]
Stitching Progress.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums out there. Enjoy your special day! I have been working on this embroidery from Leanne Beasley of Leanne’s House. I only have to add the 3 butterflies – needle turn applique. And also making slow progress on the jacobean embroidery.
Cat Quilt.
Still working on this one. I added a final border and some more snail trails in the corners. Just need a little more time to sandwich this and quilt. One day.
Little Stitches.
Lovely to be back. I really missed being able to check in on all that has been happening. Really disappointed with the lack of service from Telstra – phone still not sorted out after 11 days! I have been making the most of my time with quilts and embroideries. I decided to get on the […]
Birds and Houses.
We have been going through one of those long computer sagas over the last 4 weeks where a variety of different things do and don’t want to work. In the end all the time and work was to no avail and it has gone in for extensive rehab. Hopefully by the end of the week […]
Aussie Garden Twist.
I have been playing with blocks on my design wall using Leesa Chandler’s fabric. It is a lattice type pattern called Garden Twist. I have picked a couple of changes to make with the blocks already. I had also chosen a border fabric that looked good when the fabrics sat together. However, when the blocks […]
Mystery Quilt Day.
Earlier this week I attended a mystery quilt day. Lovely setting and very well organised. Great teacher. We had a cutting list prior to the day and arrived organised and ready to go. It was broken into 5 blocks. There were nine blocks in the centre. We started with the 4 Birds in the Air […]
A Star Mistake!
A while back I mentioned that I needed to make quite a few more red and white stars for an internal border on a quilt. I started working on a few last week and managed to make some progress with ten more. After I had pressed them I went to put them with the other […]
Just Binding.
Nearly there. Just finishing the binding!
