Bunting

My bunting all finished...........a wee bit later but that's OK. Thanks Kerryn & Leeanne

Well done Raewyn

I am very impressed, our sample sister Raewyn has been 'published'! If any of you have the current issue of the NZ Quilter magazine check out page 52. Raewyn's blog is featured. How many hits has that generated Raewyn? Hugs Sample Sister 'B'

Getting ready for April's get together...............................


My last block of Chateau Hexagon ready to bring along, maybe a stitch or two will happen............nice to be working on this again.
Also something I managed to finish..............................Love it or hate it.......I LOVE IT!!!


A bit of an 'up-cycle'/transformation of a 70's china cabinet. From this:


To this:


Do you like my handle?

One of Mum's old Sylko wooden spools!



I know these photo's aren't the worlds greatest, but I have done a bit of Decoupage in the back of the spot where my china tea cups are. Derek gave me some old sheet music, plus I found some vintage sewing paraphernalia, even a bit of lace & tape! I had heaps of fun.

Just in Time!!



Just completed my latest Breast of Friends challenge block. Another to add to the growing  pile. Amazing what can be achieved when there is some rain and an inside day is declared. I am a very happy camper as I also managed to finish quilting my William Morris sampler quilt. Now only 2 quilts in the quilting pile. The pile of quilt tops to be put together seems to be growing though!!

I look forward to catching up with you all tomorrow evening. Seer you then, Sample Sister 'B'

I have had time to stitch Block 8 of Country Friends ... 4 more blocks to stitch.

Breast of Friends progress ... 0%!!
Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday night.
