A New Start For The New Year.
I do still have a few UFOs to finish, but it is always great to start something new at the beginning of the year. In keeping with my love of bright colours I have chosen these fabrics. And I planning to use them in this pattern. This is Kitchen Window from Elizabeth Hartman’s book, The […]
Good Progress.
I am delighted to say that I am making good progress with my projects as well as good progress with myself. Thank you for the well wishes – they have definitely worked. This week I am feeling like my old self and and am ready to get back to doing all that I enjoy. I […]
A Not So Nice Surprise.
After a wonderful month of family activities I had planned to return to my sewing and catch up on a lot of quilting. As you can see there are a lot of flimsies waiting in line to be sandwiched and quilted. Unfortunately these plans went astray due to the unpleasant surprise I mentioned. I ended […]
Little Leftovers.
I had a few little bits of fabric left from the Holiday Frost quilt. Not enough for even a small quilt but too lovely to just toss in with the scraps. After a bit of playing I made a small wall hanging. It is now waiting to be sandwiched and quilted. The centre […]
Red Again.
It seems that once the red theme hits I have to work it out of my system. I recently received a fat quarter bundle of these lovely fabrics. They are Holiday Frost from Henry Glass. Gorgeous reds and greys in this bundle. I had a lovely experience with this purchase when […]
Pink And Blue.
I have spent a week concentrating on free motion quilting for my Dresden quilt. I am surprised at how long it has taken to do all the stitching. But thankfully the end is near as I only have the binding to do and a few loose threads to trim. I decided after all that work […]
Feeling Colourful.
I am making somewhat of an effort to work on a few UFOs. Just the bright and colourful ones. This first one is the 3D bow tie quilt. I had the blocks made a while back and have only now put them together. I have also started to quilt the Dresden that has been […]
A Little Mystery.
This little quilt top was completed recently in a mystery quilt workshop. It is a lap quilt or throw size. We received instructions to select 3 fabrics – light, dark and medium. We then had to do all the cutting before class. This made sure the top was easily completed in a day. Definitely a […]
Goodbye, January.
January has flown by quickly which probably means it has been a very busy month. Hard to believe tomorrow is a new month. I have continued to enjoy my Fernhill BOM from Lynette Anderson. Block 3 is done and I am working on number 4. It is an enjoyable stitchery and I have set no […]
Stripes and Stars.
Here are the stripes! This little zebra has recently found a new home with our grandson. He is made using a pattern called Savannah Chaps, by Barbara Prime, which also includes and elephant and a rhino. It was purchased through Ravellry. Very easy to make and good directions. I think there may have to be […]
