Today has been a preparation day for a sewing day Tania and I am going to on Saturday, I have chosen to make the big star quilt so need 180 squares and 40 triangles...a challenge to me with that kind of cutting!!! I can also show the Winter Wonderland Quilt I have been working on, it is a panel, I have added sequins and beads, some pearl beads on the snow flakes, and gold foil paper rubbed onto the gold pieces to highlight. I have hand quilted around the Santa and animals and around the border. I am still thinking of putting some words on the bottom....still a WIP!!
cutting, cutting.....I am working with pink and purple shades of Batik fabric with white in the corners...
and the left over bits have been cut into 2 inch squares ready to be made into hexies...how organised is that!!!
and even better No.1 son is cooking dinner!! Yippee!!!!
Happy sewing!

ReplyDeleteYour Santa looks beautiful. You are also going well with all the cutting.well done. Oh what a lovely son !!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely panel Sue, something different to the traditional red and white. Dinner looks delicious and even better when you don't have to cook. Enjoy your sewing day.
