Hello! I think things will settle down for a while now. More sewing retreats are booked but, for a short while, my shop will be open for normal days and hours. The classroom is busy and projects are coming together very nicely
Merlot has been very productive making baby sized quilts. This is a design she has made before but this time with lots of little fussy cut squares. It's sandwiched and ready for quilting. Nothing too dense as Merlot wants a lovely soft quilt.
Mrs. Lou Lou is so happy to have finished all of her quilting on this huge quilt. The binding is on and just needs to be hand stitched over to the back, not her favourite job, which she might just have mentioned once or ten times! It's almost ready for a toot toot toot fanfare. The pattern is by Elizabeth Hartman, no surprise there.
With trumpets up, This quilt is fabulous and finished!
Toot toot toot for Christabelle. She was able to dedicate a chunk of her sewing retreat time to the quilting while chatting away with the like minded lot of us! This lovely Winnie The Pooh Quilt will be gifted to a tiny person very soon.
Another Elizabeth Hartman pattern made by Merlot. She's actually made many of her designs and enjoys all the intricate piecing. It's a very lovely gifting project and the dinosaurs look very friendly in all the bright colours.
My I Spy Pre-Cut Six Packs are just the ticket when a gifting quilt is needed with very little time to spare. The pink sashing Louise chose for this one gives a small clue to the colour of the baby! A pink one! Just the binding needed now.
This is one of my retreat projects. The centre was appliqued during my February retreat by the sea, the stars were stitched in Shrewsbury! It's going to be a well traveled wall hanging!
