Because it's pretty.....

Because a pretty quilt deserves a pretty back...

 

and now it's ready to be quilted! Oh! I can't wait to see it finished!!

Etchings

Whoot! Whoot! That's the quilt top finished! Ta-da!

I had quite a lot of the Paris map fabric for the outer borders.... while it's quite light, I think it's really pretty... quilts are made to be used - and are easily washed if necessary!!!

There are some interesting bits and pieces left over that I'll play with for the back.. but really... I think that's enough for tonight!

Intensely happy

Oh! How I love an intense day of sewing!!

Rosie and I enjoyed a wonderfully relaxed day of sewing at Andrea's today....

This was my progress before lunch.... The Pokey Puppy quilt was my first priority today -I really need to get it to Mum - the twins are due this month!

Ah... cauliflower soup, salad and a cheese platter... Mmmm... Oh wait, that's not what this blog is about... Hahahhahaha

And.... this was after lunch! Yay!!!

The Pokey Puppy quilt top is ready for quilting... I think a pattern of bones would be perfect....

Then, I took along another couple of projects... and decided to work on this one: This is the Etchings fabric range- I am making Persian Tiles.

I'm making a quick quilt.. thinking of some simple ones to make to sell. I am thinking about selling some quilts on Etsy. I'd love any feedback if you've sold quilts.
