May furtle

May has come and gone so fast that I even missed the end of month recap! I had a few things to blog about that I never got to post but overall sewing time has been rather limited! I started the month making some blocks for UFO and with a lovely workshop but that got shelved rather quickly...

 Let's just look at May furtle with blocks
After a lovely workshop where I started my Enchanted Stars quilt
I finally fixed Luna
 and made (only) 5 more blocks for the 365 challenge
but I finish all the blocks for my Scrappy Trip Along, all 14 of them
A grand total of 20 blocks!

 And with all these blocks, I managed to make a quilt of it.
I also made 2 Tees as a pattern tester, and my son was the winner! and also finally finished my daughter's pyjama (everything that could go wrong went wrong...)
And finally I made myself a little card holder out of some gorgeous cork fabric.

    May does seem to have come and gone in the blink of an eye, but you have lots of lovely advances to show for it! Your Scrappy Trip quilt is gorgeous--so sunny and cheery, it definitely merits a 'Yaaay" *Kermit flail*
    You have all my feels on 'everything that could go wrong, did'. Kinda makes you feel like screaming.
    The cork *is* gorgeous. I've yet to work with it, although I do have some.

    The month may have gone in a flash but you have made some lovely things. Your Trip Along quilt is absolutely gorgeous (I'm a real rainbow girl!) and I'm already looking forward to seeing where next month takes you!

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.
