The Running Landscape


The completed top from the inspiration of my running landscape and the view from my house across Beacon Fell.  Looking forward to getting some quilting done, but absolutely no idea what I will do.  Have 5 days with Philippa Naylor next week Free Machine Quilting so hoping for some inspiration.

This will be Joe's Quilt


Recent workshop with Janice Gunner Log Cabin with Attitude, certainly is.  Very enjoyable and looking forward to the overall look when all blocks are done.

Mums Quilt Finished



I'm very please with the finished quilt, I've named it Fifty Shades of Green.  Entered it for Harrogate, no prize but positive feedback from the judges.

Made myself a iPhone sleeve for my new baby to go to sleep in…

A little bit of quilting for stability


A lovely appliqué design found on internet. Pull top in matching fabric and with matching ribbon to close up




A nice bit of detail fancy stitch for quilting

Twitched Twiddle Tweak Workshop with Jennie Rayment

Had a great day with Jennie learning new techniques which will create this lovely sunflower, another UFO for a while I fear, but it was well worth the day and will be completed I'm sure, along with all the others!!

Just one more to go and then to the framing and trellis.

Tuesday 14 February 2012

There is so much unfinished stuff in my cupboard.  I need to get this done this year.  I have workshops this year, and that will no doubt generate further UFO's.  Now I know that this is the staple of the quilter but it would be really nice to enjoy the finished work envisaged when the work was planned rather than still planning it!!! Ah well I know you all know what I mean, and I hope to show you some finished work later in the year, the first one being Mums Quilt.  Which will also need a name? Any suggestions?

Mums Quilt

This is coming along nicely, 14 of the 16 blocks are done some of the framing and the trellis is cut and ready.  I will be getting it together soon, once I have been able to catch up on work, mostly marking and emails.  I would much rather be doing this but need to get the other done, roll on retirement, if only I could afford it.

Mums Quilt 
Coming along quite nicely now, 
just need to think of a suitable name to label it.
