Dolly and me

This the finished quilt of dolly AMD me. I've hand appliqued it.  The blocks are 3D, with removeable pieces.  The pattern is by kookanurra cottage and its being run as a BOM at Lilylane

It's time for Christmas

This is the first block in a BOM that the magazine homespun is running, I'm mot sure I needed another Christmas quilt, but I'm sure gonna enjoy stitching this one.

Needlework roll

I just whipped up this needlework roll....I cheated a bit by using double sided pre quilted fabric.
It's the ideal thing to protect your stitcheries or applique blocks.

Newest creation

Gracie Anne.  This is what my sewing girls have all been making.....this pattern has been around since about 2006......
I've given her a bit of a country look and she looks great standing in my lounge room.

Finally

Well hello..
I'd been having trouble updating my blog, I got my daughter holly to fix the problem......so now finally I get to post an update.

I've turned a year older.....got very spoilt.

Christmas has been and gone. We had so much fun this year with Bella.

We flew to king island to spend Christmas with my family.

Holly and I had a little road trip to albury to visit friends,..

I 've completed quite a few sewing projects.

And 2013 is here, and moving along very quickly.

That's a short overview of what's been happening.......I'll post pics next time.

Update...

Hi all......been a bit slow with updates lately.


Finished a santa that I was making.......
This is a Threads that Bind pattern.....quite quick and easy to make.


My latest interest is Pinterest.....I just luv looking at other peoples ideas and creations.
I saw a table runner made by stitching together doileys....and what a great way to reinvent them.  This was my try.....and i have made others since.  I  now need to frequent the Op shops so that I can get a good supply of them
