Unveiling

Last night we had our unveiling on mini quilts as challenged by Tania

Mini, mini quilt made by Tania on Monday

Mini quilt made by Tania last weekend - love the mini log cabins!

Tracee whipped this up on Monday and Tuesday with fabric she was given last Sunday at the Rose Mill Friends gathering - love the blocks - have to find out how to do this!! Love the colours too!

My effort!

Helen made an autumn leaves quilt = just the top for now, there is some applique to go on before the backing and the quilting...will update when it is done.

Mini quilt

Yesterday was get it finished day!!!

Stitcheries done and cut ready to sew to the centre,

prairie points cut, folded, and ironed and I only had one burned finger after that lot, not bad I thought!! Lol!! 

Pinned on the prairie points, then had to take them off as I had pinned them back to front..duh!!! Then happily carried on, only to find I had pinned the other 3 sides the WRONG way!!!! Must be over tired!!

Finally got the prairie points on and the backing, did some basic quilting, all I can do at 8.30pm, then went and had a cuppa!! Phew. Tania at  Gisborne group challenged us to do a mini quilt and we had 5 weeks to get it done, great idea and it makes me get on with things, but need to get more organised and not cut thinks so fine!!!! I forget that sometimes life gets in the way and you don't get the time in the day you thought you were going to!! Trust DH to get his car serviced  yesterday!!!!
