WIP Wednesday.....

I love joining up with the WIP Wednesday. It makes me try and get stuff done so I can post about it. Being winter here, it's had to get into a (warm)groove. Since the boys have gone back to school after the holidays I have not felt like sewing. I have to quilt because I have customers, but I wouldn't if I didn't have to. 

So today I made an effort. I had some swap blocks that are due now so I got stuck into it. I think it's because the sun is finally out. I threw the house open, hung the sofa quilts on the line in the sun and got some sewing done.

One swap block done

Another cut ready to go

Last week I found the Farmers Wife Sampler book at a gorgeous store,Calico & Ivy, in Balmain. I couldn't just leave it there. I have this beautiful fat pack of Oasis. Perfect combo. Can't wait to start it.

I am linking up over at Freshly Pieced. Go and check it out

Sorry for the Absence.....

Sorry I haven't been posting. We have just got back from a holiday to Melbourne and we were straight back into school and work.

A little of what I have been doing.

I picked up my crochet hook again and with some really nice yarn I am having fun with granny squares with a twist.

I will post about our holiday soon.

Happy Quilting

WIP Wednesday...

It's been a strange couple of days. My boys have gone to stay with Ma & Pa for a couple of days and I've been bangin' around here all by myself. As I am on "holidays" I thought I would put one of my quilts on the frame and do some whimsical custom quilting. I would have done a customer one but I'm waiting on a thread delivery.

This quilt is made from Heather Bailey fabrics. It is so fresh.

I left the whirlygigs with no quilting. I only quilted the background......

The other project I have done a bit on this week is my dresden plate. There are 500+ wedges that were sewn and turned through. Next up is the pressing. I'm putting that off. I should just do 20 at a time and it won't hurt my back so much... 

I'm linking up with WIP Wednesday over at Freshly Pieced. Go on over and see what everyone else is up to...

Happy Quilting
