Hello February!


February in Australia is all about "back-to-school".....


cupcakes for lunch, 

an apple for the teacher, 

(Well, maybe not!)

new glasses and cycling to school!

And a map for the backing....

Sorry for leaving off my friends from the west coast of the US!

I have now completed three of my twelve

Polaroid calendar series....


Summer in Australia- 

we have plenty of that to come!

(Should you like instructions to make one or more of these Polaroid calendars, please let me know)

Happy days!

SUZ

  3. Your quilt calendars are really fun. Has a student ever brought you an apple?

  4. I like the monthly associations. I am already curious: what will March be? I'll just have to wait and find out, I guess.

  6. I'd take a cupcake over an apple too - although it would require more bike riding to burn it off!

  7. It's so fun to see how you're doing these, and the color gradation from one month to the next, intentional or not, just adds more to the dramatic effect. I know you're putting one out each month, but they would look smashing all hung together. Can you take over a large wall to do that? Oh. And you're forgiven for cutting me off like that. It really couldn't be helped.

  13. I love your Polaroid quilts. They are such a fun idea. I get to learn about your country. For us in the US, back to school us in September but we still need what your quilt shows.

  22. These are so fun, Suz! And as Linda noted, you have a great rainbow going. How large are your quilts? If not too big, maybe they could be strung as a banner when you get them completed.
