Good Victory...

is the name of my latest quilt finish,


my 14th quilt for 2019!


This is the second time I have made a scrappy quilt 

with this 'pattern'....



I really like how the navy blue works with the white 

and all my scraps!


As usual, I've kept the quilting simple...


with just some straight lines through all the white 

sashing.


Why is it called "Good Victory", I hear you ask?


My friend's name is Eunice, 

and it means Good Victory!


Dimensions: 54" X 68"
Quilt finish # 14 for 2019
#118 all-time quilt
Scrappy sandwiches quilt

Happy sewing!

Time Flies....


when you are having fun!

Well, it certainly goes quickly when you are busy!

And I have been very busy with my day job, 

so there's not a lot of time left for sewing!

But I am making Barbie a new wardrobe....


First up, a summer frock...


then a pair of smart trousers. 

I searched out some free knitwear pattern on 

YouTube and used a skein 

of sock yarn that was languishing in my stash!


And before I knew it she had a matching skirt!


Now that I have a recipient chosen for this quilt, it's 

being basted soon!


 I picked up an awesome fabric for backing at Darn 

Cheap for $9 a metre!

I'm proud of the (almost) invisible join!



And finally, I quilted up that mini for a sewing 

machine cover.


I hope to be back soon with another quilt finish!

Happy sewing!
