A Woolly Finish.

Posted on | May 29, 2026 | 1 Comment

It has taken a while, But my Sue Spargo quilt, Tinsel, has been completed. It didn’t take too long to complete each of the blocks and even sew the blocks together. But when it came to the quilting, I was a bit stumped. It was around the time my machine was playing up and didn’t want to stitch on wool. So it went in the too hard basket. When my machine was back in working order, other priorities had taken over. We all know about that.

Anyway, it finally came out and was completed in no time at all. Even the binding is done.

The quilting in the blocks is bubbles or pebbles. Not quite sure that the borders had a particular pattern name. Just squiggly..

So, on to the next thing. I have started to use some lovely threads around the snow people.

That is going to be a slow process. Perfect for Winter.

And Winter is the time that our citrus trees like to shine. The oranges are looking great, but still too early to pick. They are still very tart and will need a month or more to sweeten up. But it is lovely to see the colour in the garden.

That’s it for me. Short and sharp today. Lots planned for the weekend including a show and stay over in the city.

Cheers, Karen
