To Do Tuesday

So last week we were away on a skiing holiday, although I didn't ski to stay with my youngest daughter who managed to injure her shoulder BEFORE we left to go skiing. I had planned mainly hand sewing for the past week, to do in the car and on holidays and I happily managed to get some done

Let's look at the list I had written last week...

1. Finish blocks #6 & #7 and make block #8 for the Modern City Scape  - #6 & #7 are finished; #8 is in progress

2. Catch up on the 3 Birthday blocks I haven't yet done - no progress

3. Sew the next Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along blocks for February & March - no progress

4. Complete 2 Dear Jane blocks - E9 is finished; E13 is in progress


5. Complete 2 Hexie blocks - in progress

6. Do a little cross-stitch - no progress

This week I have managed 6 days of sewing related activities, keeping up with my goal for 15 minutes to stitch with Kate.

Time to plan for the week ahead...

1. Finish blocks #8 and make block #9 for the Modern City Scape 

2. Catch up on the 3 Birthday blocks I haven't yet done 

3. Sew the next Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along blocks for February & March 

4. Make a bag/pouch for my friend's birthday

5. Complete 2 Hexie blocks

September in the Hexagon!

Welcome to my stop on the Hexie Blog Hop Be a Hexie Queen ! I am a hexie lover and always have an emergency supply of hexies in my bag for when I am on-the-go (which is actually very often) and when I first signed up for the blog hop, I thought I would show you a EPP (English Paper Piecing) hexie project. That was until I remembered a long forgotten UFO that was laying in a plastic bag in my cupboard. I thought it would be the perfect occasion to get the dist and cobwebs out (no it wasn't that bad really) and give it a new lease of life! It all started with a few scrap strips and ended with a few more strips! I ordered and received a scrap bag of Moda fabric a few years back and I received a pack of off-cuts of Migration by Holly Taylor. I wasn't sure what to do with it until I saw this Hexagon quilt-along on Julie of Jaybird Quilts ' blog that I know I wanted to join in, it was all about hexagons! And although there were machine-pieced, there was no horrible Y

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

Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along

Image
  Yes I know, another new project... but (!) this one is all about using my scraps, what's not to love. And the instructions come in German for the  Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along .  The first 3 blocks are made of rectangles and I used only scraps to make those (I can't really say I have made a dent in my scrap basket either actually...) I picked green as the focus colour for the blocks since this is the January colour for the Rainbow Scraps Challenge organised by Angela I joined the challenge years ago but hadn't participated in recent times. Of course it would be tempting to start yet another project but I think using my scraps for this quilt along in the set colour of the month is a safer plan.
