Another quilt top complete!

I really enjoyed making these blocks!


I was pattern testing for Quilt Design Duo.....



and I'm expecting it to be available on their website 

next month.




I loved the gentle curves and the fact that there 

were no real seams to match.



I decided to sash all sides and was delighted to find

 the daisy print at my local discount fabric shop!


I haven't decided on its official name yet, but I'm

 sure something will come to me while I quilt it.


On a side note, these blue beauties arrived in the 

mail recently!


I'm planning a Flowering Snowball quilt with these!

But I have my Boston Pavement blocks to get 

back to yet.

Happy sewing!

Have I shown you these?

This is a bit of a summary of what I've been 

sewing lately....


four more Boston Pavement blocks....




                 in a variety of prints and colours.


I've made twelve blocks now.


A little diversion of zipper pouch making....


and some pattern testing with these blocks.

"Whirligig"



So it looks like I've started another quilt!

Yes, green again!


I have a little boy in mind for this!

I wanted to use a blue and grey colour palette but I 

just don't have that many blue fabrics.


So I'm doing a swap with Linda @Koka Quilts

These are what I am sending.

Go to Linda's blog and have a look at the beauties 

she's sending me! 

Until next time....

happy sewing!

"Prickle"

Did you know that a group of hedgehogs is known as 

a Prickle?


Cute, hey?

So it seemed a very appropriate name for my 

latest quilt finish.


I quilted some simple vertical and horizontal lines on 

my Juki and 

then hand quilted, with quilting cotton around each 

of the feature squares.


The wool batting gave it a loftier look than I 

am used to,

but perfect for a baby all the same.


The colours were not easy to photograph....


It looks much better in the daylight!


A view of the back


Ready to be gifted tomorrow!
