Finishes work

The yellow quilt is finished and ready to travel to New Zealand - lovely and soft with a backing of polo fleece.

Very happy with the little stitchery for the label - this is the second one I did, the first got caught up in some fabric and I cut it with the other fabric I was trimming!! Teach me to tidy up!!!!

Secret sewing

Some secret projects are under way in the sewing room but I can't say much because they are secret!!!  :-)  One to be finished by June the other July...best get on with it me thinks!!
At least it is better sewing weather today, not so hot,
French braid quilt made last year (I think) now needs it's butterflies attached and finished off, I think I made a mistake here, I used wadding and then put a fleece fabric on the back to make it cuddly, but it is now very heavy and it is supposed to go to New Zealand! Mmmmmm.....

butterflies ready to be ironed on

secret stuff to have a play with!
Bye for now!

Finished work

KOGO baby blankets finished and ready to go
strip quilt with butterflies added and butterfly travel lines added for quilting
for some reason the computer refuses to upload the other quilt picture so I guess I can't add it!! Quilt has been packaged up and is on it's way to Chooky blue and to find a new home.

Things to do today

I found some really nice soft cuddly fabric at Mill Rose Cottage /to make into cot blankets for the KOGO baby gift packs. The idea is to turn them right sides together then sew around, turn right sides out and wallah....baby blanket!!


Also today is the day to attach the butterflies to the strip quilt

off to the iron....
thought it would be a good idea to iron a couple of shirts from the to be ironed heap at the same time, but after two shirts I decided it was just too hot!!
now butterflies are added....time for some lunch and a look at blogs.....then off to sewing...well I have been on the computer far too long now, so I am really off to do some sewing..free range quilting here I come!
