Port Fairy Tales

Mr. PnP have been away for a short break, 


down on the Shipwreck Coast in western Victoria,

hence the name "Port Fairy Tales".


I had a great opportunity to finish binding my 

Heather Ross/ Sawtooth Mania quilt,
 

And to get some pretty photos of it!


I had a very willing quilt holder, but this backdrop was 

in the shade!


It was only when we returned to our accommodation 

that I noticed the log with the ocean in the background!



Finally some close-ups of the quilting...

 straight lines on the machine,


and a little Perle handquilting!


Quilt #6 for 2020
Lifetime quilt #124
47" square
"Sawtooth Mania" pattern by OPQ


I only have two quilts at the "WIPs" stage, but before I 

start new one, I have some clothes to make!

Happy sewing!

Gertie Marlane!

I was pleased to have finished up my Outback Wife 
quilt 
the day before we headed off for our next little
break. 


My husband and I enjoyed taking these photos...


Old railways stations and water tanks were perfect 

backdrops. 


There is a real vintage vibe happening, don't you 

think?


I backed this with a vintage bedsheet, which gives it 

a soft and buttery feel! 


It is hand quilted with a variety of perle thread... 

mainly in hot pink!



I'm pleased to say MrPnP loves this quilt, so it's a 

keeper!


Dimensions- 64" square
Quilt finish #13 for 2019
#117 all-time quilts
My own design

Happy sewing!
