Stitching News

A couple of projects to show you. I'm finding the new Blogger system tricky to use. I'm hopeless with changes to computer stuff... could be an age thing? My head is rather full of fabric, projects waiting and colour choosing... so there's no room for learning technology, ha! I can't even get the writing to be the same size... there's no hope!

Linda succeeded with her quilt making marathon. As a teacher, she knew she only had her summer holiday do get it done and boy did she work hard on it. It's a Jelly Roll pattern, from one of the many books, but no Jelly Roll was used, Linda used yardage and cut up the 2 1/2" strips, all by her very own self. She was able to choose every fabrics and it worked out way more economical too.

And the back.... Taa daa Beautifully co-ordinated. So we can raise those trumpets, this is a fabulous finish so here we go... a toot toot toot fanfare for Linda... good luck with the getting back to school too. 

Farmer Lynda made a second Elizabeth Hartman Llama pattern project. This one is going to be a grand baby pushchair quilt. Lynda is going to add a lime green grunge strip to the top and the bottom before sandwiching and quilting... She will be keeping this one for her very own self!

There you go, I can only find these few pictures. I know I have taken more. They must be here in my computer somewhere, ha ha ha ... I''ll have to ask my Lilly to help me find them....

I have been trying to sort out the new Quilty Quarters... what a job!
A total pleasure and a blooming chore, both at the very same time.
These are a few of my hand dyed fabrics. It's ridiculous to have dyed so many fabrics when I avoid using them... so I am going to, use them all up that is... don't hold your breath though, I never said WHEN!!

If you are still here... Just to clarify about my shop... 

I am continuing to operate my appointments system with hand washing on arrival.

It is working very well. 

I am truly sorry if you have turned up without an appointment and you couldn't come in because someone else was shopping... We have to be safe. This is all I can do to keep us ALL safe. 

If no-one is in my shop, or due to come shopping, when you arrive without an appointment, of course I can let you in to browse. But pre-booked appointments will always get priority.

All you need to do is call me 07807530441 before heading over to check the situation.

Hope to see you all soon.
