A New Month And Season.
Welcome March and Autumn. We are being spoiled with a beautiful, mild sunny day here. I suppose I should make the most of it before the cooler months arrive. I have been working on several projects at one time, but when this happens there are not a lot of big project finishes. Here are some […]
Little Steps.
It still seems to be very busy here, but progress on some projects is being made in little steps I have finished the little stitcheries from a FigNBerry pattern. They will have to wait for a little while to be made into a quilt, but I have enjoyed having a portable project to work on. […]
Ribbit, Ribbit.
I wanted an easy project to play with just to give me a little bit of sewing time. I really like the quick strippie quilts made by Mary of Making Scrap Quilts From Stash, but the focus fabric I had was not WOF. It was only a fat quarter. So, as they say, necessity is […]
August.
I had a very lovely lady notice that I hadn’t been posting anything on my blog for quite a while, and she was checking to see if everything was alright. What a sweetie. So here I am, just scraping in for an August post. Sewing time has been extremely limited as most days have been […]
Christmas Letters.
Steady progress is being made on the blocks for a Christmas quilt. It is from a pattern by Viv Robinson. These are my blocks so far – not all the hand stitching is complete on them. All the applique is raw edge machine stitching. And a lot of the decorative lines are also machine stitched. […]
Busy Fingers.
I have had a busy couple of weeks which have kept me out of my sewing room, but I have managed to keep some handwork with me for those spare moments. These are some stitcheries from Natalie Bird of The Birdhouse. It is from a little booklet called All Creatures Great and Small. I am […]
Welcome Winter.
Here we are at the start of Winter, but my trees seem to have skipped a season. As you can see in the photo there are hardly any leaves turning colour or falling to the ground. Yet only a few streets away, these same trees have dropped their leaves and the branches are bare. Very […]
Views And Windows.
Big smiles here. Our computer is back after convalescing for 10 days. Happily, it is now working better than ever. I had just finished my Kitchen Windows quilt flimsy and was ready to post about it when the computer decided to stop. So here it is. Love these fabrics. The pattern is from Elizabeth Hartman’s […]
A Little Mystery.
Each year I manage to attend a workshop for a mystery quilt. This one was held on a day that was 41c but thankfully the workshop was held in air conditioned comfort. This is the end result. It is a small lap quilt – about 40 X 40 inches. I tend to make them small […]
Hot And Easily Distracted.
I have cut out the kitchen window quilt I mentioned in the last post. But with the forecast for our weather, ( 44c or 111F), I decided to cut out several other quilts so I had plenty to do inside with the aircon flowing. That’s where the distraction came in. I was fascinated by the […]
