Help is on it's way!

At last I'm going to get some professional help....

With my quilting, that is! (LOL)


My LQS is running a workshop over two evenings, with plenty of time in between to practise.

And practise is what I need!

Before our first class next week, all class members were required to purchase this kit of fabric-



There are some of my favorite colors and designers here, so I was pretty chuffed!

Fandango by Kate Spain.....



After some simple cutting and piecing this is what I will be practising on!

It is a pram blanket.....


Just not sure what I will do with it yet?

I might have to keep it in the family!

What are you working on this weekend??

Happy Sewing!

  2. I love how you take a class and they make you buy the fabric pack too!!! Have fun and I can't wait to see how you do - I'm going on one in June.

  3. You'll learn so much in a class. Nice fabrics! Looking forward to seeing how you go. I'm really frustrated with my machine quilting. You might inspire me to go and do a class. This weekend I'm working, but I'll make up for it next weekend with lots of sewing!!

  4. Suz - love the fabric - just the right colors for me.

    I am working on hand quilting a 42" square table topper. I used a 'disappearing nine-patch' theme. I will hand quilt and then go back and do a machine stitch in the ditch to highlight the pattern.
