This and that

Over the last few days I have made 27 quilt as you go blocks, it used up lots of fabric left from other projects. They have been sent to Jan Mac for her quilts for the people who have lost everything in the fires. You can see what she is doing at her Blog.
27 is an odd number for making a quilt I realise, but that was all the backing I had. I will get to make some more in a couple of weeks.

Flat Stanley spent the afternoon at the beach, had a bit of a float around

and then sat in the sun for a while.

The first Aussie Hero quilt is under production, I have done quilt as you go method to make the stripes, now I have things to applique in place.

As it was cooler yesterday afternoon I decided to get this top ready to quilt..I think I have too many things on the go at present, but variety is the spice of life!!
Off to do more pinning.
Happy stitching.

  2. You may have lots of projects on the go, but they definitely aren’t stagnating. And it’s good to see that you and Flat Stanley can still take time out to relax.

  6. Well done for making QAYG blocks for Jan Mac. I’ve been making them this week too and about to finish my last ones tomorrow. She does such amazing work for fantastic causes. I just can’t comprehend those Australian Fires. So awfully sad and dreadful.
