Stitching News

Jean Bean's fabulous and finished baby play mat... Like a quilt! When these moda Charm packs arrived in my shop, just a bit before Sewing Prevention Season kicked in, Jean got super excited because she knew exactly what she needed one for... and this is it. Toot toot toot Beano, it's lovely


So, Jean Bean is having a run of babies it seems... These blocks will be made into a large baby play mat for gifting... All the rest of the fabrics have been cut, the borders have been chosen and cut... there's going to be a huge spurt of activity in the Beano household!

Chrystal has finished all of her Walking Foot quilting on her Hearts and 9-Patch project. She's decided to add Free-Motion detail next. Given that she had never even dropped a feed dog before... her first practice went very well. Thread chosen and time to move on to the main quilt now.

Fiona Too has this lovely quilt almost finished... We love the "About A Boy" collection... There's just trimming the crusts off and binding to be done. But Fiona set it to one side to work on something else... Oh how we love to do that!!!

New Sue got so much sewing done in one day... Arriving with all of the Pineapple blocks made at home, she stitched them all together, made a quilt sandwich and quilted the whole thing AND trimmed the crusts off And purchased her cushion zip ready for the back!! 

Princess Jackie carefully added inner border strips of gorgeous green fabric to this fabulous Hidden Wells quilt centre. There's going to be a second border added as a Coping Strip which will be calculated once Jackie has made 40+ 6" blocks for her main borders.

PM Pam has been working on this applique bunny beauty over sewing prevention season. It's going to be a panel feature on a baby play mat for gifting... The plan for the rest is being conjured up as we speak.
