progress

I have started on the Inkfortnight creations, using fabric until I get brave enough to try something else!








I have also finished two more children's Christmas quilts for SJOG.
I was given a Christmas panel by Tracee of Hummingbird Quilting and also used a jelly roll I had here. I tried to do a jelly roll race with it and it didn't work so I am happy it has now been used for something else.  


We have a portrait challenge at Bellarine Quilters due to be shown at the Quilt Show at the end of October, quilting us due to start when I figure out what to do!!  I also need to sew in the needle and cotton.
Under the Sea has progressed to the quilting stage




I am stitching around the fish, animals and stems so far .
I am off for a walk hopefully before another rain shower happens.
Happy stitching.

    Gosh lots of loveliness in this post Sue. Your inkfortnight challenge looks most interesting. I am in awe of your portrait piece - how amazing that is ... all those pieces. I think you should be designing patterns Sue.
    Under the Sea looks amazing too. I have not sewn much since my return but am itching to get into the sewing room - other things are requiring my attention!! xx

    Guess who, inspired by you, created a fabric art card!! I had so much fun with it. It's my first one too.

    I was so excited that I completely forgot to say that your other project are so lovely! I am looking forward to seeing more of the portrait and Under the Sea.

    Good idea to start your Inkfort challenge with fabric -it would feel a little more achieveable!. I love your challenge piece., Great to see more progress on your Ocean quilt
