Lets play catch up – Part 1

Oh well it is safe to say that I have definitely blown my plan to blog at least once a week, let see we are at week 18 and I have done 8 blog post this year. I can safely say that you have not been missing out of much, I do however plan to catch you all up on what I have done since I blogged last.

I recently partook in a pincushion swap with the Melbourne Modern Quilt Guild and was lucky enough to receive this amazing pincushion from Alice. Alice does not own a sewing machine and does all her sewing by hand.

I made a pincushion for Rachel and in the rush to get my pin cushion finished I forgot to take a photo, however you can see a picture of it  here

The main lot of sewing I have been doing is the block for MMQG Oh Beehave quilt bee, these are a few that I have done recently

For Marg

 

Two star blocks for Rachel

 

I have also made some for Alissa, Anna & Gina but I don’t seem to have taken photos of those ones before sending them off.

Blogtoberfest – Day 9

Opps I totally forgot to do this post yesterday, after a full day sewing at the monthly MMQG Sit and Sew day, I came home and had a early night and only remembered about the post while feeding Lachie at 3am this morning.

I had a lovely day at our Sit and Sew day, I was able to finally make a good start on doll quilt for EB Quilters Doll Quilt Swap #4

Anyway I can now reveal the block that I showed a sneak peak of back here

This is Esther block for the MMQG bee “Oh Beehave”

I have also got almost all of my material together for my round, just waiting on two small amounts of Kona solids to tie it all together

Do you think I have enough material?

Blogtoberfest – Day 3

Today was once again a lovely sunny spring day, we had swimming in the morning and then as a treat we took Bastian for milkshake and to feed the Pelicans.

Once home I was able to finally get some sewing done, unfortunately I can’t show you a full picture of it until after next Saturday.
