Sentiero

is Italian for 'pathway',

and the name of my latest quilt finish!


I began this one back in September.

It is a paper pieced pattern called Boston Pavement.

Three rounds of straight line quilting

I don't think it is any longer available,

but there are other versions around.


There are more details on this blogpost.

Anyway, I was supposed to be holidaying 

in Italy in May....

Enough said?



Quilting it helped take my mind off the gloom and 

doom we are all experiencing, 

to varying degrees.


It was pleasantly quiet, wandering around taking 

these photos too.



As I noted on Facebook, quilters have been in 

training for this social isolation for years!


Here in Australia, we have not been officially 

quarantined but many are choosing to stay at home.


We are teaching online, and mostly from home,

 for another week, 

then some serious crafting can begin.


Plans are being hatched!

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!
