Stitching News

A little catch up... I really don't where all the time goes!!!

Cheryl is so pleased with her quilt. As am I! This picture isn't showing the true vibrancy of the colour, it's a WOW-BOOM! of loveliness, really, you can't help but smile looking at it. Inspired by this Organic Applique book Cheryl has thoroughly enjoyed the whole process

She chose this magnificent leafy Batik fabric for the back.

Toot toot toot Cheryl Cheryl a fantastically fabulous finish.

We need another fanfare for Our Lou Lou who finished her lovely Cushion, the pattern for this design is in this, very popular book Lou purchased those buttons to be added later at home. There's a covered zip installed, with great skill, in the back, but I'm not really supposed to mention how that went! She enjoyed making the back so much that she did it twice! Toot toot toot Lou Lou, it's a fabulous finish.

Remember all those little black and white unit-titty-bits I was teasing you with? Shirley has constructed lots of the cutest little penguins now... made with great accuracy as that's the way she likes it. I can't wait to show you all the little fellows together. I Googled.... "A group of penguins is called a colony, a rookery or a Waddle"  I love the idea of a Waddle of Penguins!!!

Bev's cushion is finished... an exercise for Half Square Triangles, first time using the Photo print fabric (available in my very own shop) loads of expert led embroidered embellishing stitching... I'm gushing eh!! Toot toot toot Bev, I love your fabulous and finished Hedgehog Cushion.

More time with our trumpets pointing upward... Janis very proudly held up her fabulous and finished, Quarter Log Cabin quilt, there was a bit of relief there too as this is her largest quilt yet, the last one was a table runner so that was inevitabubble. Toot toot toot Jan, it's just fabulous.

Deb also Almost finished her largest quilt to date.  It's the same design as the Cat's On The Fence quilt a few ladies have made recently, but it looks so different in these muted grey tones. 

Really speaking we can't give this one a fanfare yet because, even though it is fabulous, it's not finished. Deb stabilised it with lots of basic quilting, in the ditch stitches and got the binding on... but now she's going back in with a little bit of Free Motion playing... exciting!
