Stitching News

Lou Lou added little kisses for the eyes of her beautiful Batik Fish, by hand!!! Embroidery Lou Lou!!! who would have thought? A sandwich was made, quilting commenced and binding was made. She had a very busy day indeedy.

Just Edna has been commissioned to make a double bed sized quilt. She'll need 25 of these blocks. After making a few changes to the pattern and to the piecing method and then the finding of Edna's wonderful, super thin and sharp pins... which helped Edna find those lost quarter-inchy pointy bits... she's now on the right road to success.

Edna also needs a celebratory fanfare for this Fabulous and Finished gifting quilt... it's a bed runner for a soon to be married couple... Toot toot toot Edna...
(Dear Edna, I won't tell anyone about you having to unpick the binding and the unpicking of a number to change the date to the day it will really happen, your secret is safe with me!)

Carol had a great idea... she made a quilt top, you saw it... the one with a magical tree full of owls and other things from nature... but, after sandwiching the quilt, Carol couldn't quite decide what design she wanted to used to actually quilt it... so she made this cushion in a similar design so that she could practice... That is a brilliant idea! Not only is this a fabulous and finished, totally toot toot toot-a-bubble quilted cushion, that big quilting decision has been made too!

This is the back of Carol's fabulous and finished cushion.
Toot toot toot Carol.
