Another Finish!

A triangle quilt had been on my 'to-do' list 

for quite some time now...


I chose to make mine from Denyse Schmidt's 

"Picadilly" fabric range from Spotlight,

complemented by Kona solid in Limelight...


I had great success with spray basting, 

using 505 Spray and Fix for the first time-

hardly a pucker in sight!




I used my favourite thread- Aurifil!

No.1231, which I call Pacific Lime of course!



It was a perfect match!



I quilted in a double diagonal line about 1/4" 

on either side of the triangles....



giving a diamond pattern all over!



It is not a large quilt-

about 44" by 56"


I think it would make a great picnic quilt...



or maybe just a couch quilt!



Now to decide what to make next....

Happy sewing!

Pacific Lime...

Version one....


Too much green?


Ah, that's better!



Those pesky points are much better 

disguised amongst the pretty DS prints!


An advantage of a design floor!


 A matching (grubby) ironing board cover!


"Pacific Lime" is now waiting to be quilted....

Happy sewing!

WIPs Wednesday!

I cannot remember the last time I wrote a WIPS 

Wednesday post!

So here's what I have been up to...


I have finished piecing the backing for 

my Modern Amish,


with the arrival of Elizabeth's siggy block.

I now just need the inclination to baste it all 

together!


I have been slowly piecing my Triangle Quilt,

which is proving to be a challenge,

matching up all those points!


Stepping around it on my 'design floor' is also 

a challenge!

Finally I have made a bunting from some 


sweet novelty prints!


What have you been up to?
