Some happenings

I am slowly getting some things done here, the days seem to be busy, but not a lot to show for the business! I had a lovely day out sewing and lunching yesterday with friends, it was a most enjoyable day.
Today I went to the PO to send off the Aussie Hero quilt, the recipient asked for ANZAC and poppies

I bought the panel, added the border and flags, then free motioned the poppies onto the green and blue section, along with the kangaroo and kiwi. It is a beautiful panel, full of lots of meaning.

this block for the Old Time Kaleidoscope is finished

and this one is part way through, thanks to the sewing day yesterday and no domestic interruptions!!

the Hotch Potch quilt is together

today I went into Geelong to Lizzies Quilt shop and got fabric for the borders. 

The next Aussie hero quilt has asked for Australian and green, so I picked up some green fabric in Lizzies, I am thinking of doing some square in square blocks and star blocks. I was very good and didn't give in to temptation and buy anything else!
I had better away and get some cutting done.
Happy stitching.

    The Aussie Hero quilt looks stunning Sue - I think you have captured Anzac & Poppies just perfectly. You manage to put these together & cater to their wishes so well.
