July goals

 School holidays is on so I am hoping this means more free time for me since there is no(t as much) taxiing of the kids required and they might even be away with my mum for a little while! But then again, if the weather is really nice maybe I won't be very motivated to sit in the sewing room in the evenings... 

Quilting

1. Impromptu quilt - this one is back from quilting and only need trimming and binding, maybe I can do the trimming this month and maybe even start putting the border on, we have had some chillier evenings lately...

2. Harry Potter - this one has not progressed since March. Not sure when I'll pick it up again. 


3.  Farmer's Wife quilt - I am really hoping to progress this one and finish it this year to gift it to my mum.

Dressmaking

1. Aquarius dress - this one was "finished" for my daughter's Communion in June but needs some fixing!

2. Night dress
3. Kids summer PJs - these will be my One monthly goal
4. Linen Skirt

Bags

1. Moonwake bag
2. Town bag by Grainline - cut and started but not progressing

Cross-stitch

1. Grimm's Tales stitch along

Blog hop and a giveaway

Welcome to my blog if you are new here and found me from the Quilting Gallery website and welcome back if you are a regular reader. I have written a blog for over 2 years now but started quilting about 10 years ago, mainly self-taught. I love fabric and my stash is probably too big for my needs, but can a girl really have TOO MUCH fabric? I don't think so! Michele at the Quilting Gallery is organising a blog hop for the 4th anniversary of her site . If you don't know the quilting gallery yet, you need to hop over there and have a look around, there is plenty to browse at. Every week, there is a themed-contest. Everyone can enter their quilts and everyone can vote on the entries. Well worth having a look at, you can even enter your quilts if they fit the theme. I have entered a few times in the past, but never won! From September until December, 36 designers shared a Christmas block for free in the " Celebrate Christmas Quilt-along ", you can still collect the pat

It is snowing...

Well not really where I am. It is pouring down with rain and it is very windy too. But it has been snowing in my sewing room! If you have arrived from the Holiday Lane Pillow  blog hop , welcome! Today is day my stop on the hop. I first saw Jill's design last year and saved it on my computer to make it one day! So when Madam Samm announced the blog hop run by Pauline, I thought this was the perfect occasion and signed up for it. Thanks to you for the motivation and the encouragement to get going!

Dare to Dresden - Day 5

Welcome to England and thanks for stopping by! Make yourself comfortable while I share with you my Dresden adaptation. But before I share with you what I have made for the blog hop, I have a little confession to make. I signed up for the blog hop early in January (while still away on holidays actually and dutifully added the button to the side of my blog). Christine of Quilt Monster in my Closet  sent us an email with the plan for the hop and guided us through it around mid-January and then on Monday, she sent us this nice little reminder about our forthcoming spot on the hop. This is when I went into panic mode. I had all the best laid plans and was going to make my Dresden at the week-end ready to be blogged about before tonight.... apart that I completely forgot about it at the week-end and shortened a pair of curtains for Mr Cars instead. I had an idea of how I wanted to play with the blades since I signed up but I hadn't started to play yet... And yesterday I was out all e
